Our pasta began as a special, but due to its overwhelming popularity, we made it a permanent part of our menu. In the 9 years we've been open, we have become a favorite restaurant with locals and travelers alike because our food is not typical hotel fare.—Monroe Street Grille, Tallahassee, Florida
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons cajun seasoning
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each), cut into thin strips
2 tablespoons butter
8 slices each green and sweet red pepper
4 large fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 green onion, sliced
1 to 2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 ounces linguine, cooked and drained
grated parmesan cheese, optional
Directions:
1. Place Cajun seasoning in a large resealable plastic bag; add the chicken. Seal bag and shake to coat.
2. In a large skillet over medium heat, saute chicken in butter until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Add the peppers, mushrooms and onion; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Reduce heat. Add cream and seasonings; heat through. Add linguine and toss to coat; heat through. Sprinkle with cheese if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
