Ingredients


Preparation

1. 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.

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

3. 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.

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

Excellent and easy recipe! I substituted a sweet onion for the green onion, and instead of mincing it I cut the onion into halves, then quarters, and then sliced it into very thin strips.

I also put the onions and peppers into a pan with some olive oil and sweat the veggies until they were soft and the onions were translucent and starting to yellow before I added them in with the chicken.

I also added chipotle pepper poder to my dish and it added an amazingly wonderful flavor..
