- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 cup Cajun Alfredo sauce
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
- Place the chicken breasts in between two layers of plastic wrap and flatten with a rolling pin.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into strips or cubes.
- In the same skillet, add the noodles and cook for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the Cajun Alfredo sauce to the noodles and cook for 3 minutes for it to thicken.
- Return the sliced or cubed Cajun chicken to the skillet and heat through for a couple of minutes.
