Vegetables, protein and carbs are all loaded into one dish, so you\u2019ll hardly have to meal plan for anything else that night. Smoky and spicy Cajun-seasoned chicken is tossed with al dente penne, a rainbow of sauteed vegetables and a creamy, glossy sauce with Parmesan and basil to finish. It\u2019s <em>almost<\/em> a one-pot wonder\u2014you\u2019ll just have to boil the pasta in a different pot. The action mainly happens in one skillet, in just under an hour!<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Cajun Chicken Pasta<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chicken:<\/strong> Prepare your chicken by slicing boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 2&#215;1\/2-inch strips. Try to keep them as uniform in size as possible so they cook evenly, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/foods-to-never-wash-before-cooking\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/foods-to-never-wash-before-cooking\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">never wash meat before cooking<\/a>!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Seasonings:<\/strong> This chicken Cajun\u00a0pasta recipe absolutely does not lack in flavor. We use 3 tablespoons spicy Cajun seasoning to really give this dish its smoky, spicy namesake, plus dried basil, lemon-pepper seasoning and garlic powder to kick things up a notch.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pasta:<\/strong> Our creamy Cajun chicken pasta recipe calls for penne pasta, but you can use any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/the-ultimate-guide-to-pasta-shapes\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/the-ultimate-guide-to-pasta-shapes\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">pasta shape<\/a> you like best.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> A few tablespoons of butter keep this creamy Cajun chicken pasta dish saucy, glossy and flavorful.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Veggies:<\/strong> A chicken Cajun pasta recipe isn\u2019t the carb-heavy, meat-filled dish you may think! There\u2019s actually a surprising amount of vegetables packed in, including peppers, mushrooms, onions and plum tomatoes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heavy whipping cream:<\/strong> The creamy sauce comes from 1 cup heavy whipping cream. We don\u2019t recommend swapping in milk or a cream with less fat since that would make the sauce broken, watery and grainy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Basil:<\/strong> To easily <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/fresh-basil\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/fresh-basil\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cut fresh basil<\/a>, try the chiffonade technique! Stack basil leaves on top of one another, roll them up tightly lengthwise and use a sharp chef\u2019s knife to slice crosswise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Parmesan:<\/strong> If you can, try to grate your own Parm right from the wedge. It\u2019ll taste fresher, nuttier and more savory, plus you\u2019ll avoid the anti-caking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cellulose-in-shredded-cheese\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/cellulose-in-shredded-cheese\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cellulose found in shredded cheese<\/a>. I always always keep a wedge of Parm in my fridge for this reason!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Boil the pasta<\/h3>\n<p>Toss the chicken strips with the Cajun seasoning and let them stand for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package directions, then drain the water from the pasta.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Tip:<\/em> Toss your finished pasta with 1 tablespoon olive oil so the noodles don\u2019t stick together while they sit.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Cook the chicken<\/h3>\n<p>In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Saute the chicken until it\u2019s no longer pink, five to six minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set the chicken aside.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Saute the vegetables<\/h3>\n<p>In the same pan, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Saute the peppers, mushrooms and green onions until the peppers are crisp-tender, six to eight minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 4: Make the sauce<\/h3>\n<p>Stir in the heavy cream and the rest of the seasonings. Bring the heavy cream to a boil, and cook and stir until the sauce is slightly thickened, four to six minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 5: Bring it all together<\/h3>\n<p>Stir in the cooked pasta and chicken, and heat through. Top the dish with the fresh tomatoes and basil, and sprinkle with the cheese to finish.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2053633\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Cajun-Chicken-Pasta_TOHcom24_112947_MD_P2_09_05_2b.jpg\" alt=\"3\/4th shot of Cajun Chicken Pasta served in a large bowl; kitchen napkin;\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Mark Derse for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Recipe Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Add more meat:<\/strong> In place of all or part of the chicken, you can use shrimp or sliced andouille sausage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Include extra veggies:<\/strong> You can easily add more vegetables to this creamy Cajun chicken pasta recipe. Cut green beans, sliced zucchini or small broccoli florets would go in nicely.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Change up the spices:<\/strong> You can also use the basic chicken Cajun pasta recipe as a springboard for other flavor profiles. Instead of Cajun seasoning, use Italian seasoning and stir in some spinach in the final steps for a chicken Florentine skillet. Southwest seasonings would go well with a drained can of black beans or corn.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How to Store Cajun Chicken Pasta<\/h2>\n<p>To store leftover chicken Cajun pasta, let the pasta cool completely to room temperature, then transfer it into an airtight container. Leftovers can be stored for up to two days in the fridge. Reheat the pasta in a skillet over medium heat with a splash of water to make it saucy again.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze Cajun chicken pasta?<\/h3>\n<p>You can freeze this Cajun chicken pasta recipe, but your approach should be different if you&#8217;re freezing the whole dish as meal prep or freezing leftovers. For leftovers, let the pasta cool completely to room temperature, then freeze it in airtight containers. Thaw it in the refrigerator overnight. Reheat the pasta in a skillet just long enough to heat through. Fair warning\u2014fully cooked pasta can get mushy during the reheating process, so be careful not to overcook.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re cooking the whole meal as a freeze-it-for-later meal prep, cook the pasta just to al dente. Freeze the pasta and the chicken mixture separately. Reheat the chicken mixture in a skillet; drop the pasta in boiling water for just a minute or two to heat it through, then add it to the chicken mixture.<\/p>\n<h2>Cajun Chicken Pasta Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2053634\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Cajun-Chicken-Pasta_TOHcom24_112947_MD_P2_09_05_3b.jpg\" alt=\"Close shot of Cajun Chicken Pasta\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Mark Derse for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>What is the best Cajun seasoning to use?<\/h3>\n<p>The best Cajun seasoning is the one you like best!
