CROCK POT SPICY CAJUN CHICKEN PASTA

Steps:

• 1. For the Crock Pot: Mix the spices together and sprinkle it on top of all the other ingredients that are listed for the Crock Pot. I cooked this for 6 hours. When it is done - just shred the chicken in the pot. NOTE - the butter will rise to the top but don't worry it will all blend together in the end.
• 2. After your chicken is done, prepare pasta per package directions and drain.
• 3. While the pasta is cooking, get a skillet heated with butter. Slice the red pepper into thin slices, the same for the mushrooms. Cut the green onions on the diagonal - they should be about 2 inches long or so. Then add them to your skillet. Cook these about 3 or 4 minutes - but not too long! You want them to be still slightly firm, then remove from skillet using a slotted spoon.
• 4. In the remaining butter in skillet pour your heavy cream and stir on about medium-high heat. Just til the sauce coats the spoon. Then add a pinch of salt and pepper to the sauce. Pour it into your Crock Pot with your chicken and its sauce.
• 5. Add your vegetables and your pasta. Stir it to mix all together. Serve with either some Parmesan cheese or leave the Tony Chachere's shaker on the table for people to choose if they want a little more spice to it. Enjoy!

CAJUN CHICKEN FETTUCCINE CROCK POT RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the chicken broth to the slow cooker, add the cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, red pepper flakes, paprika, salt and pepper. Stir
• Add the chicken breasts and flip them around in the seasoned chicken broth to get the seasonings on the chicken.
• Sprinkle the onions over the chicken and broth
• Cover and cook on low for 6 hours without opening the lid during the cooking time.
• After the cooking time is done, add the heavy cream and shred the chicken with 2 forks right in the slow cooker.
• Add the cooked, drained pasta and a ½ cup of the parmesan cheese. Stir
• Cover and cook for 20 more minutes. Cooking for a bit longer helps the sauce thicken from the gluten in the pasta.
• Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese on top of each serving. I also added a touch more red pepper flakes and fresh cilantro to the top of my pasta to make it look pretty.
• Serve and enjoy!
