For the Chicken

Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper.

Gather three shallow bowls for the breading station. In the first shallow bowl, mix the flour and cajun seasoning. In the second dish whisk the eggs. In the third shallow dish, combine the breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.

Dredge each piece of chicken into the flour mixture, then into the eggs, and finally coat the chicken in the breadcrumb mixture.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until cooked through and golden brown, 5 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken from the skillet.

For the Pasta

Boil the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain the pasta and set aside.

Returning to the same skillet, heat the oil and saute the peppers, onions, mushrooms, and garlic until tender.

Season with salt and pepper to taste then remove the vegetables from the skillet.

Cajun Cream Sauce

Return to the same skillet and melt the butter over medium-high heat. Whisk in the flour to create a roux.

Pour in the heavy cream, chicken broth, parmesan cheese, and cajun seasoning. Whisk to combine.

Allow the sauce to cook and thicken while stirring for 3-5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and more cajun seasoning if needed.

To Serve

Add the cooked pasta and vegetables to the sauce and stir to combine.

Slice the chicken and layer on top of the Cajun pasta.

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and an extra dash of cayenne pepper if you like it spicy!
