Cooking Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Once boiling, add the penne pasta and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, then add it to the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil if necessary. Add the shrimp and sauté for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the andouille sausage and sauté for about 2 minutes. Then add the bell peppers, red onion, and minced garlic. Cook for 4 minutes until the veggies are tender and fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until melted, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Return the chicken and shrimp to the skillet along with the cooked penne pasta. Toss gently over low heat for 1-2 minutes until evenly coated with the sauce.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the pasta before serving. Serve individually or family-style.

Notes
Using fresh veggies ensures vibrant flavors. Add cream to leftovers to maintain creaminess.
