Ingredients:

Serving

4 oz linguine
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sliced into thin strips
2 tsp cajun seasoning
2 tbsp butter
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
4 fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 green onion, minced
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 tsp dried basil
1/4 tsp lemon pepper
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

Directions:

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