Wow. It's just so very tasty. Because I veered so far off the recipe I should tell you what I did so beginners can get in a comfort zone to make your own changes and still get great results. What's Cajun seasoning? I used Old Bay Blackening mix in the yellow tin. I thinly sliced chicken, added my "cajun" mixed and tossed around in a hot pan glazed with tiny bit of oil. In went a few thinly sliced red & yellow peppers. In went a few globs of spicy brown mustard, and a couple shakes of Chili powder. I wasn't sure about the cream but I did add just a few splashes of 1/2 and 1/2. Then a handful of grated Almost forgot- I threw in 3 chopped scallions at the end, and extra black pepper.

I made this recipe and it was an absolute hit! My fiance keeps saying that it's the best pasta he's ever had! I'll be making this the next time we have people over for dinner. A+

This is so good! My new favorite. I'm not much for measuring, but I tried to follow this pretty closely. Okay, I made a few little modifications, but purely to suite presonal taste. I left out the mushrooms and added some strips of yellow onion. I also tried a bite with lemon pepper, and decided against it. Bow tie pasta is easier to eat so I used them instead. Zatarain's Creole Seasoning was liberally applied, and I added extra salt and pepper. The cream sauce was a little runny so I let it simmer while the pasta finished boiling, and I threw in a few pats of butter when I was stirring it all up. The sauce thickened to perfection, and it tasted amazing! I prefer highly spiced food, and this hit the spot. It seems like I made a lot of changes, but none of these takes away from the original intent. Delicious!

Pretty good dish. Made it exactly as recipe stated. Sauce was perfect consisency. I like spicy... really spicy, and this particular dish was spicy but not hot. I will use some hot sauce next time for my taste.

Very good! I used 8 oz of mushrooms, roasted red peppers and doubled the parm cheese (this also helps thicken the sauce). Also used penne pasta- it soaks up the sauce better. Will definitely be making again.

This was good, but I thought the cream sauce was a bit too rich for me. My husband, on the other hand, liked the sauce. If I make it again, it will be just for him.

This was really good. I used quite a bit more seasoning than called for. Got the sauce just the right thickness by adding some corn starch.

Da bomb! I used Jmonroe62 suggested "Cajun Spice Seasoning" from allrecipes.com and the dish came out amazing. I can't wait to make it again!

This was so good! I made this last night because it was raining and we couldn't grill. I used Simple Cajun Spice from this site to season the chicken. I doubled the amount of chicken and removed it when it was done cooking before adding the vegetables. Peppers always seem to take longer to cook for some reason. When it came to the sauce I used 2 cups of half and half and some sour cream and corn starch to thicken it and to make it a little less hot. It was wonderful! I tossed it with regular spaghetti and some parmesean cheese.

I thought this was way good, and my picky boyfriend liked it all right. May have been better if I hadn't experimented without reading other comments. Not sure if anyone else has said this, but mine came out thin when I used half & half. Next time I'll start the sauce by making a roux to help it thicken. Or hopefully the store won't be out of lowfat cream. I could fully imagine eating this every week, great flavors I thought.

It was okay. My 6 yr old loved it but I though it was just okay. I followed the recipe exactly and it was just ok. Not a big fan of cajun I guess.

This was REALLY good. I haven't had success with cream sauces in the past but this turned out great. I only used the equivalent of one pepper (mixed green, red and yellow). I added diced tomato, zuchini and used baby portabellas. I used bowtie pasta instead of linguine. It turned out wonderful. I will definitely add this to the rotation.

Excellent dish. I have made it a few times and found that a little flour or cornstarch helps thicken it a bit and some crushed red pepper gives it a nice kick.
