Ingredients
- 8 oz fettuccine pasta
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized strips
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Recipe Directions
- Cook the fettuccine pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Season the chicken breast strips with Cajun seasoning, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken strips and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and broccoli florets. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Bring the cream to a simmer, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Return the cooked chicken strips to the skillet and toss to coat in the Alfredo sauce.
- Add the cooked fettuccine pasta to the skillet and toss until well coated in the sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the Cajun Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

How to Store Leftovers
If you have any leftovers (although it’s unlikely with this delicious dish!), store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply microwave individual portions until warmed through, or reheat on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Serving Suggestions
Cajun Chicken Alfredo with Broccoli is a complete meal on its own, but you can serve it with a side of garlic bread or a crisp green salad for added freshness. Pair it with a glass of white wine or sparkling water with a splash of lemon for a refreshing accompaniment.
