Steps:
- Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain when the pasta is still al dente; do not overcook!
- Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun spice (or more) over the chicken cubes. Toss around to coat. Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a heavy skillet over high heat. Add half the chicken in a single layer; do not stir. Allow the chicken to brown on one side, about 1 minute. Flip to the other side and cook an additional minute. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a clean plate. Repeat with the remaining chicken. Remove the chicken, leaving the skillet on high heat. Add the remaining butter and olive oil. When heated, add the garlic, peppers and onions. Sprinkle on the remaining Cajun spice, and add salt if needed. Cook over high heat for 1 minute, stirring gently and trying to get the vegetables as dark/black as possible. Add the tomatoes and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove all the vegetables from the skillet.
- With the skillet still over high heat, pour in the chicken broth and wine. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the cream, stirring/whisking constantly. Cook the sauce over medium-low heat for a few minutes, until the cream starts to thicken the mixture. Taste and add freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, and/or salt to taste. The sauce should be spicy!
- Finally, add the chicken and vegetables to the sauce, making sure to include all the juices that have drained onto the plate. Stir and cook until the mixture is bubbly and hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the drained fettuccine and toss to combine.
- Top with chopped fresh parsley and chow down!
CREAMY CAJUN CHICKEN SPAGHETTI
This is a (slightly) healthier version of one of my favorite comfort foods, which I adapted from my sister-in-law. You can always add more veggies to make this dish healthier...They'll be smothered with cheese so you won't even notice they're there, which is great for the kids! I recommend saving unused vegetable parts for a homemade stock. And, for easy clean up, use a plastic Crockpot liner.

CREAMY CAJUN "CHICKEN" PASTA (VEGETARIAN CHICKEN)
I came up with this recipe in attempt to please my husband who is not keen on fake meats. We all loved this dish and I don't believe he realized that the strips were not real chicken breast. The 6 year old licked his plate - literally. So if you happened to grab a bag and are wondering what on earth to do with it.... give this recipe a try. I know you will love it!

- Season chicken on both sides with 1.5 Tbsp of Cajun spice. Heat pan to medium, add 2 Tbsp of oil and cook chicken until done. Turn chicken over in pan to avoid burning. Cook time should be roughly 12 minutes. Cut through chicken to make sure it is completely cooked, if not return to pan for a few more minutes. When the chicken is completely cooked cut it into strips and cover with foil to keep warm.
- While chicken is cooking bring a stock pot of water to boil with 2 Tbsp of kosher salt added. When water comes to a boil add pasta and cook to within 1 minute of package instructions. I set a timer while cooking the pasta so I can tend to cutting the veggies and the chicken. Before draining pasta, reserve a mug of the pasta water.
- Cut peppers and onions into 1/2" narrow strips. After chicken is removed, saute peppers and onions in pan on medium heat with 2 Tbsp oil. Cook time will be 5-10 minutes depending on how soft you want the peppers/onions to be.
