Ingredients | Easy Pasta Bake Recipes Chicken

4 ounces linguine pasta

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, sliced into thin strips

2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning

2 tablespoons butter

1 green bell pepper, chopped

½ red bell pepper, chopped

4 fresh mushrooms, sliced

1 green onion, minced

1 ½ cups heavy cream

¼ teaspoon dried basil

¼ teaspoon lemon pepper

¼ teaspoon salt

⅛ teaspoon garlic powder

⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper

2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguini pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.

Meanwhile, place chicken and Cajun seasoning in a bowl, and toss to coat.

In a large skillet over medium heat, saute chicken in butter until no longer pink and juices run clear, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add green and red bell peppers, sliced mushrooms and green onions; cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat, and stir in heavy cream. Season the sauce with basil, lemon pepper, salt, garlic powder and ground black pepper, and heat through.

In a large bowl, toss linguini with sauce. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
