How to make creamy cajun chicken pasta (cajun sausage pasta) First set a pot of water to boil for the pasta. Then cut and prep the vegetables, onions, andouille sausage and chicken.

Instructions to make Chicken and Sausage Cajun Pasta:
- In a 6 quart (or larger) pot, add the olive oil and place the pot over high heat.
- When the oil begins to shimmer (and the first wisps of smoke appear), add the chicken and brown (2-3 min)
- Add the sausage and continue to sauté (2-3 min)
- Add the Cajun seasoning and stir to coat. You can use either store bought Cajun seasoning, or make your own with 2 parts cayenne, 2 parts garlic powder, 2 parts paprika, 1 part salt, 1 part oregano, 1 part thyme, 1 part ground black pepper, 1 part onion powder.
- Add the veggies and sauté (3-5 min)
- Add the noodles, stock, and fish sauce (no, it won't taste fishy. the fish sauce is there to boost the savory-ness of the dish. You can find fish sauce at your Asian grocer. It should be translucent and brown). Turn the heat to low and lightly move the noodles around to distribute and cover. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, approximately 10 min until the noodles are done.
- There should be some stock left in the pot. Add the cream and the parmesan cheese and remove from heat. Stir the ingredients to bring the sauce together. The starch from the pasta should be sufficient to thicken the sauce. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Serve in bowls, topped with more grated parmesan and garnish of your choice.
With juicy chicken and flavor packed sausage, this creamy pasta dish is pure comfort food. Cut chicken and sausage into bite-size pieces. Flip shrimp over and cook another minute or two.
