In a large pot, boil water and cook pasta according to package until el dente. Drain water
In a large skillet, put shrimp or chicken in with a drizzle of oil, and sauté until cooked while generously sprinkling with some of the cajun seasoning to flavor your shrimp/chicken directly. (If using salad shrimp like me, just skip this step and put the salad shrimp directly into the heavy cream as directed below.)
Once shrimp/chicken is thoroughly cooked, remove from skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, pour in the heavy cream and add in your chicken bouillon cubes, garlic, and cajun seasoning to taste. Bring cream mixture to a simmer, stirring regularly to prevent scorching.
To cream mixture, add your favorite add-ins (spinach, mushrooms, asparagus, etc). Next add in your shrimp or chicken and simmer until all additions are warmed through. Remove from heat
Pour the creamy mixture over your cooked pasta and let set for a couple of minutes. NOTE: initially there will be a lot of sauce but remember, your pasta will soak this up and your leftovers will be amazing tomorrow, too!
Serve with a green salad and warm, crusty bread! ENJOY :)
