Instructions
1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the linguine until al dente. Drain, drizzle with olive oil, and set aside to keep it from sticking.
2
Slice each chicken breast into thinner cutlets for even cooking. Pat dry and coat both sides generously with Cajun seasoning.
3
Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked through. Transfer to a plate and let rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
4
Lower the heat to medium and add minced garlic to the same skillet. Stir for about a minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
5
Pour in the heavy cream and stir gently. Add Velveeta cubes, letting them melt into the sauce while stirring occasionally.
6
Mix in the mozzarella and Parmesan until the sauce becomes rich, smooth, and creamy.
7
Season with smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Taste and add extra Cajun seasoning if you want more spice.
8
Add the cooked linguine to the sauce, tossing until every strand is coated and glossy.
9
Serve the creamy pasta topped with the sliced Cajun chicken and garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
