You get the same creamy great-tasting sauce and a fraction of the calories. You can’t go wrong with that.
Place chicken and Cajun seasoning in a bowl or resealable plastic bag, toss or shake to coat. In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté chicken in olive oil until almost tender, about 5–7 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Stir in flour. Gradually add milk, stirring with a whisk. Cook 6 minutes or until mixture thickens, stirring constantly.
Add 1 cup Parmesan, cream cheese, and salt, stirring with a whisk until cheeses melt. Toss sauce with hot pasta. Add the chicken and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Garnish with black pepper, if desired.
Serve immediately.

This was so creamy and comforting! It is great for people like me, who are watching calories, to have an indulgence without completely ruining the day! It also made great leftovers and was a winner with my husband! Definitely a keeper!
