Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the farfalle pasta (or your preferred type) and cook according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain the pasta and set it aside.
In a large sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Then, add the bite-sized pieces of chicken to the pan. Sprinkle the Cajun seasoning over the chicken, tossing to ensure the pieces are well-coated. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Reduce the heat to low and add the softened cream cheese to the pan. Stir until it begins to melt, then gradually pour in the milk while continuing to stir. Allow the mixture to come together into a creamy sauce. If it seems too thick, feel free to add a splash more of milk until you reach your desired consistency.
Add the cooked pasta to the pan, along with the grated parmesan cheese, black pepper, and salt. Toss everything together until the pasta is thoroughly coated in the creamy sauce and the cheese is melted. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
If you’d like, toss in some fresh vegetables at this stage for added color and nutrition. Serve your Easy Cajun Chicken Pasta warm, garnished with extra parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors!
