12 oz uncooked linguine
2 lbs chicken breast strips
1 tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 1/4 tsp salt, divided
1/4 cup butter
1 small green and red bell peppers, thinly sliced
1 (8 oz) pkg fresh mushrooms
2 green onions (white and light green parts only), sliced
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
1/4 tsp lemon pepper
1/4 tsp dried basil

Garnish: chopped green onions

Prepare pasta according to package directions. Sprinkle chicken evenly with Cajun seasoning and 1 tsp salt. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken, and sauté 5 to 6 minutes or until done. Remove chicken.

Add bell peppers, mushrooms, and green onions to skillet, and sauté 9 to 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender and liquid evaporates. Return chicken to skillet; stir in half-and-half, next 3 ingredients, and remaining 1/4 tsp salt. Cook, stirring often, over medium-low heat 3 to 4 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Add linguine; toss to coat. Garnish, if desired, and serve immediately. Serves 4
