1 medium red bell pepper, (sliced into strips, about 2-inches long)

1 medium yellow bell pepper, (sliced into strips, about 2-inches long)

1 small (5 - 6 oz) red onion, (halved and thinly sliced)

2 garlic cloves, (minced, 2 tsp)

2 (14.5 oz) cans low-sodium chicken broth

1 (14.5 oz) can fire roasted diced tomatoes

3/4 cup heavy cream, (divided)

Salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)

निर्देश

Heat 1 Tbsp olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat.

Toss chicken with 1/2 Tbsp cajun seasoning. Add to pot in a single layer.

Cook until browned on bottom, about 3 minutes then turn and continue to cook through, about 3 minutes longer. Transfer to a sheet of foil and wrap to keep warm.

Heat remaining 1/2 Tbsp olive oil in same pot over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers and onion and saute 3 minutes. Add garlic and remaining 1 Tbsp cajun seasoning and saute 1 minute longer.

Pour in chicken broth, tomatoes, and 1/2 cup heavy cream. Bring mixture to a boil, then add pasta.

Cook, stirring frequently until pasta is nearly tender, about 12 - 13 minutes. Add cornstarch and water mixture and cook until pasta is just tender and sauce mixture has thickened, about 1 minute longer.

Remove from heat. Toss in remaining 1/4 cup cream, parmesan, parsley and cooked chicken, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm.
