Creamy Creole Shrimp and Chicken over Penne image

I combined a few recipes that I had and came up with this one. You can adjust the creole seasoning and add hot sauce to your tastes. The first time I made it, I couldn't taste the spiciness until after I let it cook for a bit so I added more Creole seasoning and it got way too spicy for my tastes. Please use caution! If you follow the recipe, you have a mild spiciness from the Creole seasoning and a creaminess from the Alfredo sauce. Add some protein and a pasta, and you have got yourself a wonderful meal!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy. It was more like a thin broth.

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think it would be great served with a side of rice or bread to help tame the heat.
