Season the chicken with Cajun seasoning.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Sear the chicken pieces until golden brown on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, sauté onions, bell peppers, and garlic until softened.

Return the chicken to the skillet.

Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and more Cajun seasoning to taste.

Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened slightly.

Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat evenly with the sauce.

Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley and grated Parmesan cheese.
