One Pot Jambalaya Pasta

1/2 lb. chicken breast, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tbsp. Cajun seasoning
2 tbsp. olive oil
1/2 c. yellow onion, diced
1 tbsp. garlic, minced
6 oz. Andouille sausage, sliced
2 1/2 c. uncooked Penne pasta
1 c. chicken broth
1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 large tomato, chopped
1/2 lb. shrimp, peeled and de-veined
2 oz. cream cheese
1/2 c. cheddar cheese, shredded
Chives, sliced (for garnish)

1. Season chicken with 1 tbsp. Cajun seasoning; set aside.

2. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onions and stir until soft, about 3 minutes. Add chicken to pan and cook until brown on both sides. Stir in garlic and sausage and cook for another minute.

3. Add uncooked pasta, chicken broth, sliced peppers, chopped tomato, and remaining 1 tbsp. Cajun seasoning. Stir then bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

4. Stir, add shrimp to pan, cover, and simmer an additional 7 minutes. Uncover and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

6. Remove from heat and add the cream cheese and cheddar cheese. Stir until cheese is melted. Garnish with chives and serve immediately.
