Creamy Blackened Chicken Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the penne, then drain and set aside.
• Place olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and add chicken; cook until cooked through, turning chicken halfway through. Remove from pan and slice into bite-sized pieces. Return chicken pieces to pan with mushrooms, tomatoes, green onions and minced garlic. Saute together while tossing occasionally for 2 minutes. Add heavy cream, Parmesan, Creole seasoning and noodles to chicken and vegetables and cook, stirring frequently to heat noodles and melt cheese. Taste and add more Creole seasoning until it's just right. If you are brave enough to toss all the ingredients in the pan, do it! We love to catch the flame just right and it creates a wonderful show for the guests to watch.

Steps:

• Set a large 1-gallon stock pot of water to a boil and add the kosher salt. Place the linguine in the pot and stir until the water returns to a boil. Cook the pasta until tender, but with a bit of resistance (al dente), about 12 minutes.
• While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce. Set a 12-inch saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and olive oil to the pan. Once the butter has melted, season the chicken with 1 tablespoon of the Essence and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and add the chicken to the pan. Sear the chicken until well browned on both sides, about 2 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add the onions and habaneros to the pan and saute until the onions are softened and lightly caramelized, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic to the pan and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the cream, remaining 1 tablespoon of Essence, remaining 1 teaspoon of salt, and the chicken to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook the sauce until the cream is reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, linguine and the reserved cooking water to the pan and cook, tossing to incorporate for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and add the green onions, Parmesan and parsley and toss to blend. Serve immediately.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
