Cajun Chicken Pasta

Okay... you may lift your jaw now. That's right. I am posting a dinner recipe! :) And not just any dinner recipe, but a fantastically delicious recipe!

I love this meal. It is so delicious and filling. It has the added bonus of getting on the table in under 20 minutes. The chicken is not too spicy, so if you like a little kick to your food, you could always up the cajun seasoning. Don't shy away from it, though. Believe me. I suck at eating spicy foods. I just don't do well with it and I love this meal, so that should tell you something about the heat/spicy factor. The heavy cream makes it slightly creamy, but not overly so. Everything works together so well!

Enjoy!
