Step-by-Step Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Season 1 pound of diced chicken breasts with Cajun spice. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the chicken is cooking, bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 10 ounces of cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions, typically around 3-5 minutes until they float.
- In the same skillet, pour in 1 cup of heavy cream and stir. Gradually add ½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese, continuing to stir until melted and smooth.
- Add the drained tortellini to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Let it simmer over low heat for 2-3 minutes to meld flavors.
- Plate the Cajun Chicken Tortellini and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
