0 Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Follow the instructions on its packaging. Drain in a colander, drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking and set aside.
1 Slice the chicken breasts in half if very thick. Season liberally with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
2 Heat the butter in a high-sided skillet over medium heat.
3 When the butter bubbles, add the chicken, and sear on both sides until browned and cooked through, about 5-8 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
4 Remove the chicken from the skillet, and set aside. Slice into bite-sized pieces.
5 Add the garlic, cooking until fragrant and lightly colored, about 1-2 minutes.
6 Lower the heat to low, and pour in the cream and milk. Add the grated parmesan cheese, and stir until smooth and creamy, about 4-5 minutes.
7 Give the sauce a taste, and add extra salt and pepper, if necessary.
8 Add the pasta to the sauce, and toss until coated.
9 Serve the pasta in bowls, then top with the Cajun chicken breasts.
10 Garnish with parsley and more Cajun seasoning, if desired, and enjoy immediately.
