Cajun Chicken Bites over Creamy Cheesy Rigatoni
Description
Tender, golden-seared chicken bites coated in bold Cajun spices and tossed onto a bed of rich, velvety cheesy rigatoni. The sauce is creamy, smooth, and comforting, while the chicken adds heat and flavor. It tastes like a restaurant pasta but cooks quickly in one skillet and one pot.
