The ingredients needed to make Chicken and Sausage Cajun Pasta:
- Make ready 1 Tbsp olive oil
- Get 1 chicken boob, diced (or 2 if they come in the pack)
- Take 1 lb sausage, sliced (Andouille or whatever you can find)
- Get 1 Onion, sliced
- Make ready 1 Tbsp Cajun seasoning (see below) or 2 McCormick cajun cubes
- Get 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- Make ready 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- Get 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- Make ready 5 cups chicken stock

Cajun-style blackened chicken is cooked first. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, covered cooking pot over medium-high heat. Once the chicken has started to brown, stir in smoked sausage and let brown as well, then stir in fresh garlic.
Steps to make Chicken and Sausage Cajun Pasta:
- In a 6 quart (or larger) pot, add the olive oil and place the pot over high heat.
- When the oil begins to shimmer (and the first wisps of smoke appear), add the chicken and brown (2-3 min)
- Add the sausage and continue to sauté (2-3 min)
- Add the Cajun seasoning and stir to coat. You can use either store bought Cajun seasoning, or make your own with 2 parts cayenne, 2 parts garlic powder, 2 parts paprika, 1 part salt, 1 part oregano, 1 part thyme, 1 part ground black pepper, 1 part onion powder.
- Add the veggies and sauté (3-5 min)
- Add the noodles, stock, and fish sauce (no, it won't taste fishy. the fish sauce is there to boost the savory-ness of the dish. You can find fish sauce at your Asian grocer. It should be translucent and brown). Turn the heat to low and lightly move the noodles around to distribute and cover. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, approximately 10 min until the noodles are done.
- There should be some stock left in the pot. Add the cream and the parmesan cheese and remove from heat. Stir the ingredients to bring the sauce together. The starch from the pasta should be sufficient to thicken the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve in bowls, topped with more grated parmesan and garnish of your choice.
I like to save the garlic for this step so it doesn't burn in the pan while the chicken and sausage are cooking. Add chicken broth, heavy cream, uncooked pasta, and cajun seasoning to pot and bring to a simmer. Seriously, no one will believe this creamy, meaty, flavorful pasta is lightened up. With juicy chicken and flavor packed sausage, this creamy pasta dish is pure comfort food. Flip shrimp over and cook another minute or two.
