Nutritional yeast is dairy-free and adds a cheesy flavor.

Flatten the chicken breasts using a meat tenderizer or cut them into bite-sized pieces.

Drizzle olive oil on the chicken and rub it in.

Mix Cajun seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, dry parsley, paprika, and Old Bay seasoning together.

Sprinkle the seasoning mixture all over the chicken breasts and set aside to marinate for 10 to 15 minutes.

Add water to a pot and season it with chicken bouillon and salt, then cover it and bring to a boil.

Once boiling, add the pine pasta and cook for 7 to 10 minutes until al dente.

Drain the pasta but do not rinse it.

Drizzle olive oil in a medium-high heat skillet and add the marinated chicken, cooking for about 5 minutes on each side.

After cooking the chicken, place it in an air fryer for additional cooking if desired.

In the same skillet, add chopped onions, bell peppers, and cherry tomatoes (optional) and sauté for about 60 seconds until the vegetables are soft.

Add minced garlic and cook briefly before adding heavy cream and cream cheese to the skillet.

Once the cream cheese is melted, add Slap Your Mama seasoning for additional flavor.

Stir in Parmesan cheese and then add the cooked pasta, mixing until well coated with the sauce.

Slice one chicken breast and mix it into the pasta, saving the other for garnish.

Add fresh parsley and mix everything together before serving.
