- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning plus more for garnish
- 10 ounces penne pasta
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese plus more for garnish
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions
Cook the pasta in salted water according to package directions.
Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken and season on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper.
Preheat a grill, grill pan or skillet to medium high heat.
Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Cut the chicken into slices.
