Creamy Cajun Chicken Spaghetti with Mozzarella Velveeta Alfredo Sauce is a rich and indulgent pasta dish that combines bold Cajun spice with a smooth, cheesy Alfredo sauce. It’s quick to make and perfect for comforting family dinners or entertaining guests.

Ingredients

  1. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  2. 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  3. 1 tablespoon olive oil
  4. 12 oz spaghetti
  5. 8 oz Velveeta cheese, cubed
  6. 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  7. 1 cup heavy cream
  8. 2 tablespoons butter
  9. 2 cloves garlic, minced
  10. 1/2 onion, finely chopped (optional)
  11. Salt and black pepper, to taste
  12. Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Cook spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  1. Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips and season generously with Cajun seasoning.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5–7 minutes.
  3. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic (and onion, if using) until fragrant.
  5. Add heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in Velveeta cheese and mozzarella until fully melted and smooth.
  6. Season the sauce with salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat with the sauce.
  8. Add the cooked spaghetti and toss until well combined and evenly coated.
  9. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use thighs instead of breasts for more flavor and moisture.
  • Velveeta ensures a smoother, creamier sauce but can be swapped with cream cheese.
  • Add a splash of cream when reheating to maintain sauce texture.
  • Feel free to customize spice level with more or less Cajun seasoning.
  • Not recommended for freezing due to dairy-based sauce.
