Ingredients:

Serving

2 chicken breasts, boneless skinless
4 tsp cajun seasoning
4 tbsp butter or 4 tbsp margarine
3 cups heavy cream
1/2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp garlic powder
8 oz penne pasta, cooked and drained
2 roma tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, fresh shredded , to taste

Directions:

Slightly moisten chicken with water.
In a large resealable plastic bag, shake chicken and cajun seasoning until chicken is thoroughly coated.
In large skillet, saute chicken in 2 tablespoons butter, over medium heat, turning whenever necessary.
When chicken is about half-way done, grab a second skillet and combine heavy cream, 2 tablespoons butter, and remainder of seasonings over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
When cream mixture begins to bubble, add the pasta and turn off heat. Stir well.
When chicken is cooked through, place on cutting board and slice into strips.
Spoon pasta and sauce onto large serving plates (2) and top with chicken, diced tomatoes, and Parmesan.
Throw a thick, garlicky slice of Texas toast on that bad boy and enjoy!
