    "Like Chili's Cajan Chicken Pasta"


    Source of Recipe


    I think I found this on on Secret Recipe World

    Recipe Introduction


    This recipe calls for four chicken breast halves, but I (as always when possible) used rotissorie chicken and put the cajun seasoning in a big plastic bag and coated it that way, then only sauteed it for a few minutes in the butter and then went on with the recipe (since the chicken was already cooked) and it turned out great. I even had it for lunch the next day and it was still pretty good. It wasn't all that spicy to me but I eat a lot of spicy food so I may not be the best judge of that.

    List of Ingredients




    Ingredients -

    4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
    4 tsp. cajun seasoning
    4 tbsp. butter or margarine
    3 cups heavy cream
    1/2 tsp. lemon pepper seasoning
    1 tsp. salt
    1 tsp. black pepper
    1/4 tsp garlic powder
    8 oz. cooked penne pasta (drained)
    2 roma tomatoes, diced
    fresh shredded parmesan, to taste
