2 tbsp. olive oil
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite size chunks
2 tsp. Cajun seasoning, divided
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 cup half and half
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
8 oz. dried fettuccini pasta

Steps:

Heat the oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Add the chicken and season with 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning. Cook until the chicken is cooked throughout and no longer pink in the center. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 minute. Add the broth, half and half, 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the pot. Break the fettuccine noodles in half and add them to the pot. Cover and bring to a rapid boil. Reduce heat to medium low and continue to cook for 10-12 minutes or until the noodles are al dente and there is only about ¼ inch of liquid along the bottom. Remove from heat and stir in the parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
