Cajun Chicken Pasta

2 Chicken breasts
Penne pasta (little tube kind)
Alfredo sauce

Boil water in pan, add pasta. When pasta is soft enough, drain the water and add Alfredo sauce.

Chicken Option 1:
Buy pre-cooked frozen fajita-style chicken. Heat in microwave and add to pasta.

Chicken Option 2:
Thaw 1 or 2 Chicken breasts. Heat a Tbsp-ish of oil in a pan on the stove (Medium/High) and put the chicken in the pan. Sprinkle some taco seasoning on the chicken.  Cover with a lid, let cook for about 7 minutes, flip it over and cook for about 7 more minutes. Cut into strips and add to your pasta.

Serve with Garlic bread and a vegetable.
