Fresh vegetables, flavorful spices, and a good quality pasta will make all the difference. - Don't be afraid to adjust the spiciness of the dish to your liking. If you can't handle too much heat, reduce the amount of cayenne pepper or add more sour cream or yogurt to cool it down. - If you don't have Cajun seasoning on hand, you can make your own by combining paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and thyme. - To save time, you can use pre-cooked chicken or shrimp. Just be sure to heat it through before adding it to the pasta. - If you want a creamier sauce, add more sour cream or yogurt. You can also add some grated Parmesan cheese for a cheesy flavor. - Serve the pasta with a side of garlic bread or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
