This recipe is from a local grocery store. A little cajun kick to your everyday chicken alfredo. I did research and made sure there was not a typo. The original recipe does call for 2T of Cajun seasoning but please season to your own taste. Thanks for the reviews. Ingredients:

2 tablespoons butter |
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sliced 1/2-inch thick |
3 garlic cloves, minced |

1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper |
8 ounces heavy cream |
1 green bell pepper, julienne |
1 red bell pepper, julienne |
