ONE-POT CAJUN CHICKEN ALFREDO by No. 2 Pencil


This recipe is from No. 2 Pencil and it's a great one. I made just half and used rotini pasta. Rotini is shorter than penne. I cooked onion first, then added everything else, and I used garlic powder in place of real garlic. I left out the sausage and just used a piece of baked boneless skinless chicken breast that I shredded and added after the pasta had cooked. I added a handful of frozen broccoli florets too so it could cook in the broth. I used half and half (half cream and half whole milk) in place of heavy cream. I used slightly less cajun seasoning and this was nearly ruined from too much salt from it. The amount of Parmesan cheese is perfect. I didn't add pepper or salt because the cajun seasoning had plenty of both in it. Half the recipe is still too much so I'll make 1/4 of the recipe next time.

I grade this an A!
