  • 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
  • 0.5 teaspoon paprika
  • 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder

Method
 

  1. Boil a large pot of salted water and cook linguine until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Notes

Feel free to substitute linguine with fettuccine or penne. Using chicken thighs or pre-cooked rotisserie chicken can save time and enhance flavor. For a lighter version, half-and-half can be used instead of heavy cream. You can add veggies such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or spinach for extra nutrition. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop, adding a splash of milk or broth to restore creaminess.
