Prep: 15 min | Cook: 45 min | Ready in: 1 hr

Bring a pot of water to a boil and add linguini. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente, and drain. Set aside. Place the chicken and cajun seasoning in a plastic bag and shake to coat. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, and saute the chicken until almost tender, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add the green onion, and the red and green peppers. Saute, stirring, for about 2 or 3 minutes. Reduce heat and add the black pepper, cream, garlic powder, lemon pepper, basil and salt. Cook enough to heat through. Toss with linguini, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and serve.
