Steps:
- Boil 6 cups of water in a large pot over high heat and cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain the pasta, rinse with cold water (so it doesn't clump, can also toss a little olive oil on it to prevent clumping) and set aside.
- While the pasta is cooking, add the butter, olive oil and onion to a large pot over medium-high heat and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent.
- Add the red bell pepper, garlic, Cajun seasoning, basil, paprika, ground black pepper, salt and cayenne pepper. Stir to combine and cook for 3 more minutes or until the bell pepper starts to become soft.
- Add the chicken and stir and cook for another 6-8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
- Add the parmesan, heavy cream, cream cheese and chicken broth and stir and cook for 8-10 minutes or until the sauce starts to thicken and the cream cheese has fully melted.
- Add the cooked and drained pasta and stir to coat pasta with sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then serve with freshly chopped parsley on top, if desired.

Steps:
- Add olive oil to a plate or shallow bowl and cajun seasoning to a plate or solid bowl. Dip chicken breast into oil followed by cajun seasoning and transfer to a cast iron skillet over medium heat.
- Blacken chicken 3 minutes and flip. Cook chicken 3 minutes or until done. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Cook your pasta according to package directions (I like to save a little of the pasta water just in case the sauce needs thinned).
- Sauté your peppers and mushrooms over medium heat with a little olive oil (you can also just cook them with the sauce, they just don't get quite as soft)
- Once they are tender, add garlic, green onions, cajun seasoning and heavy cream.
- Bring sauce to a boil until bubbles form in the center.
- Toss the fresh cooked pasta into the cajun sauce with the chicken.
- Remove from heat and immediately add parmesan cheese. Toss until coated.

PASTA WITH CREAMY CAJUN SAUCE
I found this recipe on steamykitchen.com. It has a lot of cream, but it is so worth it! This recipe has two different reductions, which makes the sauce have more concentrated flavors and evaporates the liquid. It was very good, and definitely a comfort food! (The preparation and cooking time is probably off a little because I made it a while ago and can't really remember how long it took.)
