How to make Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta now?

To begin I am going to boil the pasta so in a pot I went ahead and add some water salt to cover it allowing it to come to a boil. Then pour in the pasta once the pasta was nice and cooked and al dente go ahead and drained the water and set it aside moving on. Now have two chicken breasts and I know you guys gonna say the chicken breast is too dry if you know how to cook it properly trust me you will enjoy it. Eating chicken breasts okay so the first thing you have to do is is place them into a Ziploc bag then use a meat tenderizer to kind of flatten the breast a little bit just so it can cook a little bit faster don't overdo it.

Now it's time to season the chicken breast add some oil on the chicken breast first then add your seasoning so these are seasoning you can use cajun seasoning onion powder, garlic powder dry parsley paprika, and some old bay you can use old bay on chicken as well. Read the packaging so we're going to mix that together just like so then sprinkle the seasoning all over the chicken breast and be sure to rub in the seasoning just to make sure the chicken breast comes out nice and super flavorful so rub that in give it a little massage if you have to all right. Now going to cook it in a skillet nonstick skillet you are going to be adding about three to four tablespoons of oil there make sure it's nice and hot then you are going to place your chicken breast right on where you are going to cook this for about 5 to 10 minutes so be sure to keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn and to make sure it's nice and cook through once one side is nice and golden brown and of course look like this you are going to flip it over and allow the other side to be cooked. Now remove the chicken and set it aside while it's resting it's going to be producing more juice it's going to be very juicy. So in the same skillet are going to adding to be adding about one tablespoon of butter then go with some chopped onion as well as some chopped red bell peppers and with some tomatoes yes you are going to add some diced tomatoes in there and we're going to cook those until they're nice and softened and until you notice the onions are getting translucent then you are. Going to be adding your heavy cream to make this nice and creamy okay also I went ahead and add some chicken broth in there as well okay what you saw was just chicken broth I just pour it into the same container as the cream the heavy cream okay so now I am going to be adding some cream cheese I told you guys this was going to be creamy okay so trust the process.

Next guys you are going to grab your chicken that flavorful chicken breast you're going to grab that cut it into bite-size however you want to cut it and tell me this chicken is not juicy come on. Now I am going to place it in the pasta, of course, I save some for later because I like the look the outcome when you plate the food with the chicken on top so I added one and then I am going in with some parmesan cheese just pour that on there. Now if you want it to be creamy and cheesy you can add some mozzarella cheese but this is going to be strictly creamy so we're just going to keep it very creamy okay with a little bit of parmesan anyways this is how quick it is to make this dish at home.
