I made this for dinner last night and my only addition would be more cajun spice then recommended it really wasn’t that hot or maybe my spice just isn’t that spicy! It was yummy and oh my it makes a lot only my husband and I will eat this so we will be having quite a few left overs. Next time I would probably split the recipe in 1/2 for us so we don’t have so much left over.

This is my husband’s FAVORITE meal! The first night I only made a small batch, he literally ate it ALL then asked me if we could go to the store to get the stuff to make more tomorrow!! I use bowtie pasta instead of fettuccine, added more heavy cream (I like things saucy), and add a couple cans of Rotel (drained). Oh, I always use Tony Chachere’s Cajun Seasoning too! This recipe works great with rotisserie chicken! You will not be disappointed!

Awesome! I’ve made it twice now. The first time was with several substitutes for lack of listed ingredients (vegetable broth instead of chiken and white wine, yellow and orange bell peppers instead of green), and the second was exactly as written. Both were amazing! The entire family loved it.

This is my new “house” pasta recipe–any combination of veggies and chicken with some spiciness (Adobo–which I get in the Puerto Rican aisle of my supermarket–is a terrific substitute for cajun spices) together with tomatoes, wine, broth and CREAM. Yum–it’s wonderful any way you do it; it just can’t fail. Thanks for a terrific recipe!

Similar to the Cajun Jambalaya Pasta at The Cheesecake Factory (my bf’s favorite). Now I can make it at home. He loved it!

Loved this dish, FULL of flavor and spice! Love that I can add veggies that hubby won’t eat but they are big enough he can pick out.

Oh my gosh, “thank you” Ree, this is delicious and now my whole family makes it and loves it!!!! I actually double the recipe so we have some left over for lunch and my daughters have both made it and also love it! I think it will be in my little red “favorites cookbook”. Everything about it is delicious and wouldn’t change a thing. I believe sweet and salty hit it as being very close to The Cheesecake Factory”s Cajun Jumbalaya if not better.

This was spicy and flavorful! My husband didn’t even add hot sauce to it! Next time I will slightly decrease the amount of cayenne. My husband is allergic to dairy so I used rice milk instead of heavy cream. This sauce didn’t thicken up as much as I would like, so next time I think I will try some coconut milk. It might slightly alter the flavor but it’s much thicker!

Sounds incredible – I’m going to try this with spaghetti squash instead of real noodles..

My husband and I just finished eating supper…and this was the main course. And it was. so. good. And there’s leftovers!! Hooray!! My only advice would be to make sure your skillet/pot/doohickey is big enough–wide and deep. We had to do a bit of transferring, which makes for a longer clean up. BUT the taste of this pasta dish is out of this world!! 5 mitts and two thumbs up!

I made this last night for supper. By far the most delicious pasta recipe I have ever made!
I halved the recipe, and it filled my 12″ skillet.

I’ve tried to make shrimp etouffee before with a white wine sauce and it was plain nasty. When my husband heard that white wine was an ingredient, he was skeptical. As he went back for seconds, he declared that it was the best wine sauce he has ever tasted. He said that if I had gotten the sauce thicker (I was impatient and my pan wasn’t big enough) and that if it had shrimp instead of chicken, it would be identical to Papa Deaux’s shrimp etouffee. This was a great compliment as he loves his Papa Deaux shrimp etouffee.

OMG!!!! Wonderful recipe except for 1 change. Because I live in SE Texas, I have access to Cajun ingredients such as Andouille Sausage, fresh shrimp and Tony Chachere!!!. Tonight, I used 1/2 recipe of chicken and 2 links of Andouille Sausage. Anybody that has eaten the New Orleans Pasta at Cheddars or the Mardi Gras Pasta at Pappadeaux’s will LOVE LOVE LOVE this recipe!!! I suggest dividing the meat portion in thirds between sausage, chicken and fresh shrimp. The Andouille Sausage is a MUST!!!!! My husband hates this kind of stuff and was extremely impressed. This recipe would be ideal for Mardi Gras parties and the Super Bowl to celebrate the Saints!!!!

Made this last night…SO FABULOUS. I didn’t have any white wine, so I use Malibu instead and the sauce was really creamy. I figured the coconut taste of Malibu would be great with the cajun mix and it was!

i made this for dinner tonight and liked it a lot! i ended up adding a lot more cajun seasoning than suggested, though. thanks, ree!

For some reason my sauce didn’t thicken. It was pretty runny. I am not sure what I did wrong.
Also, there is NO way that this recipe only takes 10 minutes to prep and 15 minutes to cook. It took me a good 45 minutes just to cut up all the ingredients.
