Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
14 oz smoked sausage, sliced on the diagonal
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 (15 oz.) cans low-sodium chicken broth
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 pound penne pasta, uncooked
1-1/2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
4 oz. parmesan cheese, freshly shredded

Season chicken with salt and pepper.
In large pot, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove and place on a plate.
Add sausage to the pot and cook until lightly browed and cooked through. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
