Healthier Creamy Cajun Chicken and Pasta

"I love creamy cajun pasta! But using the heavy cream or the half and half is just not the healthiest thing. So, I thought that I would try using condensed milk and it worked wonderfully! With the cajun flavor, you would never guess that it wasn't made with heavy cream."

directions

  • 1. Pound chicken to help with even cooking. Season with cajun seasoning. Saute chicken in some olive oil on medium heat until cooked thru and set aside.
  • 2. Add some more olive oil to the pan and add the peppers and onion. Saute until desired doneness.
  • 3. Set aside 1 Tbsp of condensed milk and pour the rest in with peppers. Season with cajun seasoning to taste. (I add then taste to see if it is hot/flavorful enough and add until I get to my desired heat/flavor). Bring to a boil.
  • 4. Mix cornstarch and reserved condensed milk. Add to sauce and bring to a boil to thicken.
  • 5. Slice chicken. Serve pasta with sauce over it and chicken on top.
