  •   4 ounces linguine pasta
  •   1 green onion, minced
  •   4 fresh mushrooms, sliced
  •   1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
  •   1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
  •   1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  •   2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, sliced into thin strips
  •   1 green bell pepper, chopped
  •   1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  •   2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
  •   2 tablespoons butter
  •   1/4 teaspoon salt
  •   1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
  •   1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  •   2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

    1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add linguini pasta, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until al dente; drain.
    2. Meanwhile, place chicken and Cajun seasoning in a bowl, and toss to coat.
    3. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute chicken in butter until no longer pink and juices run clear, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add green and red bell peppers, sliced mushrooms and green onions; cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat, and stir in heavy cream. Season the sauce with basil, lemon pepper, salt, garlic powder and ground black pepper, and heat through.
    4. In a large bowl, toss linguini with sauce. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
