About this Recipe
Cajun cuisine is a cooking style developed by Cajun–Acadians who were deported from Acadia to Louisiana in the 18th century and incorporated West African, French, and Spanish cooking techniques into their original cuisine. An authentic Cajun meal is typically a three-pot affair, with one pot dedicated to the main dish, one to
steamed rice, specially made sausages, or some seafood dish, and the third to whatever vegetables are plentiful or available. Crawfish, shrimp, and andouille sausage are all common ingredients in a variety of dishes.
Pasta is a type of food that is typically made from an unleavened dough of wheat flour mixed with water or eggs and formed into sheets or other shapes before being boiled or baked. Rice flour or legumes such as beans or lentils are sometimes substituted for
wheat flour to produce a different flavour and texture, or as a gluten-free alternative. Pasta is a traditional Italian dish.

This is a great dish to put in your kids lunch box because it keeps really well. Along with a fruit and a veggie, it makes a complete meal. I used chicken in this, but you can easily skip the chicken and make it completely veg. You can add some tofu, broccoli or any veggies as you like in this. Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.

Ingredients from Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta
Pasta :
Fresh pasta frequently contains eggs, the flavours of dried and fresh pastas are likely to differ. Similarly, the flavours of egg noodles, soba noodles, and rice noodles will differ due to the different ingredients.
Cajun Spice mix :
Cajun Seasoning combines a bold spicy flavour (from cayenne pepper and paprika) with a subtle earthiness (provided by the garlic, onion, and herbs). It’s the ultimate all-purpose seasoning and the spice blend I can’t live without.
