Cook the fettuccine Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until al dente. Reserve ½ cup of the pasta water, then drain. 2. Season the chicken Place the chicken in a bowl and coat with Cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. 3. Sear the chicken Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until golden brown and nicely caramelized. 4. Give it a honey-butter glaze Add the butter and honey to the skillet. Toss the chicken for a minute or two until it's glossy, lightly sticky, and completely coated. Transfer the chicken to a plate. 5. Start the sauce In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, making sure not to let it burn. Pour in the heavy cream and simmer gently for 2–3 minutes. 6. Make it cheesy Stir in the Parmesan, mozzarella, Cajun seasoning, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Keep stirring until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes smooth and creamy. 7. Add the pasta Add the cooked fettuccine to the skillet. Toss well, adding a little reserved pasta water at a time until the sauce clings perfectly to the noodles. 8. Finish with the chicken Return the honey-butter Cajun chicken to the pan and gently toss everything together. Sprinkle with Parmesan, parsley, cracked black pepper, and a little chili flake for extra heat. 🌶️✨ 🔥 That creamy Cajun sauce + caramelized honey-butter chicken combo is hard to resist!
