Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 12 oz fettuccine pasta
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cups Alfredo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning Adjust spice level as preferred.
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese for serving Optional, for garnish.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cook the fettuccine according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a skillet, season the chicken breasts with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Cook over medium heat until cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and slice.
  3. In the same skillet, add the broccoli and a splash of water. Cover and steam for 3-4 minutes until tender.
Combining
  1. Add the cooked pasta and Alfredo sauce to the skillet with broccoli. Stir to combine and heat through.
  2. Serve the pasta topped with sliced Cajun chicken and grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

This dish is best served hot, right after cooking. Pair it with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal. For storage, keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. Add a splash of milk or water when reheating to regain creaminess.
