Cajun Alfredo Chicken- Low Carb image

This is my low carb version of one of my favorite meals- Cajun chicken pasta. Delicious! If you aren't doing the low carb thing, just add 8 oz of cooked pasta, and use all of the jar of Alfredo sauce. Enjoy!

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
3 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp cajun seasoning*
2 broccoli crowns
2 small tomatoes
1 green onion
1/2 c bertolli alfredo sauce**

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Rinse chicken and pat dry. Coat each side of the breasts with Cajun seasoning.
  • 2. Heat butter in a large oven-proof skillet over medium- high heat. Sauté breasts for 3 minutes on each side. When you flip the breasts, tilt pan slightly and spoon some of the butter over chicken several times. Place in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink.
  • 3. While chicken is cooking, chop broccoli and cook. I microwaved it on high for 4 minutes. Microwave ovens vary, so just keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't get overcooked. Seed and dice tomatoes, and slice the green onion.
  • 4. Remove chicken breasts from the oven, and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice and place on plates. Note: Chicken will be blackened (not burnt). Top each breast with half of the broccoli. Heat alfredo sauce in a glass measuring cup in the microwave on high for 25-30 seconds. Drizzle half of the sauce over each breast. Top each with half of the tomato and onion, and serve. * I used Bobby Webb's Cajun Spice Mix. Here's the link to the recipe: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/marinade/cajun-spice-mix.html?p=1 (omit sugar if on low carb diet) ** After reading all the labels on different Alfredo sauces, I decided that Bertolli was the lowest in carbs, with only 2 carbs in 1/4 cup.
