Recently I wanted to whip up some Cajun chicken but I wanted to come up with something to balance the heat so that the meal would be enjoyable. That is what sparked this Cajun Chicken with Linguine in Cream Sauce recipe. It was very easy to make and Ron said I better add it to our regular meal rotation 🙂

This easy Cajun chicken with Linguine in Cream Sauce recipe is a well balanced, spicy dish.

This easy recipe fed the two of us nicely and is easily doubled to serve the whole family. The chicken is rather spicy so you may want to cook up some plain chicken for the kids.
