Creamy Creole Chicken Pasta

All I can say about this recipe is WOW.

"Yum" would also cover it.

Creamy Creole Chicken Pasta (Serves: 6. Cook time: Roughly 20 minutes)

Ingredients:
2 Chicken Breasts cut into strips
Creole Seasoning, to taste
1 bell pepper, sliced
1 onion, sliced
1 container onions, sliced
1 can evaporated milk
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
Dash of garlic powder
Dash of italian seasoning
Linguine

Directions:
-Saute chicken with veggies and creole seasoning in large skillet (this is where you'll determine how spicy your dish is. Use more creole seasoning for some kick, use less for just a little flavor)
-Cook pasta according to directions, drain, return to pot
-Transfer chicken and veggies to the pot of pasta. Pour in the evaporated milk, parmesan cheese, and remaining seasonings to taste.
-Heat through and enjoy!

Meal ideas: I served this with a fruit salad. The coolness of the fruit was an awesome compliment to the spiciness of the pasta.

Oh, and also: I made the dish a little *less* spicy so that the kids would be able to enjoy it. After serving up their portions, I added in more creole seasoning because hubby and I are suckers for, well, anything with some kick to it ;)
