Cajun Chicken Spaghetti


Cajun Chicken Spaghetti 

*if you're cooking for more than three people I would  add a chicken breast & almost double each ingredient* 

Ingredients:
1/2 box thin spaghetti
2 chicken breasts, cubed
1 1/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
2 1/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon olive oil


Directions:

1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
  
2. In a large bowl add chicken, Cajun seasoning, paprika and pepper.  Stir chicken 
until all pieces are completely coated. 

3. In a large skillet over medium heat add olive oil and saute chicken while slowly adding 1/4 cup chicken broth. When chicken is cooked through set aside. 

4. In skillet melt butter and stir in flour, forming a roux. Slowly whisk in remaining chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. 
 
5. Whisk in cheese

6. Toss in spaghetti and top with chicken!

*I mixed it all together once I whisked in the cheese.
