Cheesecake Factory Cajun Jambalaya Pasta image

I love the Cheesecake factory, and this is one of my favorite recipes there. There is another recipe here for this, but it is not like the original and different than mine. I use Tony Chachere's Seasoning (green can) when making this dish. The amounts in the parenthesis are what I use in this recipe.
