  • - 2 cups heavy cream
  • - 1 cup spicy Cajun seasoning blend
  • - 1 pound fettuccine pasta
  • - 3 medium shallots, minced
  • - 4 garlic cloves, crushed

  • - 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • - 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • - Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • - 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. 11. Coat chicken breasts thoroughly with Cajun seasoning, pressing spices into meat.
