Step-by-Step Instructions
- Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add rotini and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Prepare the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, simmer until slightly thickened.
- Add Cheese to Sauce: Gradually stir in mozzarella, Parmesan, and cheddar cheeses until melted and creamy. Adjust thickness with more broth if necessary.
- Combine Everything: Slice cooked chicken and return it to the skillet. Add drained rotini and toss gently to coat in the sauce. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
- Serve and Garnish: Transfer to serving dishes and finish with chopped parsley. Serve hot with additional cheese if desired.
