Instructions:
Cook the Spaghetti:
In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water, then drain the spaghetti and set aside.
Prepare the Cajun Chicken:
In a bowl, toss the sliced chicken with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper until well coated.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Garlic Mozzarella Sauce:
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth.
Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a little reserved pasta water to reach your desired consistency.
Combine Everything:
Add the cooked spaghetti and Cajun chicken to the skillet with the garlic mozzarella sauce. Toss everything together until the pasta and chicken are well coated in the sauce.
Serve:
Plate the creamy Cajun chicken spaghetti and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
