Creamy Cajun Baked Chicken over Chorizo Tagliatelle

Name: Creamy Cajun Baked Chicken over Chorizo Tagliatelle
Cook time: 35 min
Total time: 35 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 2 100g Skinless chicken breast fillet; 2 tsp Cajun seasoning; 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika; 1/2 tsp Garlic granules; Salt; Black pepper; 120 g Dried tagliatelle; 40 g Chorizo; 1 tsp Chopped garlic; 1 tbsp Tomato puree; 130 ml Reduced-fat single cream alternative; 40 g Reduced-fat mozzarella; 50-70 ml Reserved pasta water; Fresh parsley

If comfort food had a spicy little glow up, it would be this. it's got juicy cajun spiced chicken, crispy pieces of chorizo, creamy pasta and gooey mozzarella. It's one of my fav pasta recipes to have when I fancy something a little indulgent tasting.

Notes

To make this recipe more calorie friendly, you can omit the chorizo (it's still as tasty). If you do, I would add 1/2 tsp smoked paprika per 2 serves to the base of the pasta when adding the tomato puree to regain some of the smoky flavour. You could also use 1/2 the amount of cheese and use it only to top the chicken breasts.
