Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

6 chicken breasts, Cut Into Cubes
3 teaspoons cajun seasoning, More To Taste
1 lb fettuccine
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 whole green bell pepper, Seeded And Sliced
1 whole red bell pepper, Seeded And Sliced
1/2 whole large red onion, Sliced
3 garlic cloves, Minced
4 whole roma tomatoes, Diced
2 cups low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup white wine
1 cup heavy cream
cayenne pepper
fresh ground black pepper, To Taste
salt
chopped fresh parsley, To Taste

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain when pasta is still al dente; do not overcook!
  • Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons Cajun spice over chicken pieces. Toss around to coat. Heat 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a heavy skillet over high heat. Add half the chicken in a single layer; do not stir. Allow 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 remaining chicken. Remove chicken, leaving pan on high heat.
  • Add remaining olive oil and butter. When heated, add peppers, onions, and garlic. Sprinkle on remaining Cajun spice, and add salt if needed. Cook over very high heat for 1 minute, stirring gently and trying to get the vegetables as dark/black as possible. Add tomatoes and cook for an additional 30 seconds. Remove all vegetables from the pan.
  • With the pan over high heat, pour in the wine and chicken broth. Cook on high for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in cream, stirring/whisking constantly. Cook sauce over medium-low heat for a few minutes, until cream starts to thicken the mixture. Taste and add freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, and/or salt to taste. Sauce should be spicy!
  • Finally, add chicken and vegetables to sauce, making sure to include all the juices that have drained onto the plate. Stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until mixture is bubbly and hot. Add drained fettuccine and toss to combine.
  • Top with chopped fresh parsley and chow down!
