This turned out sooo good! Really quick and easy! I added some different types of seasoning and it came out perfect. Used fettuccine noodles and cooked shrimp. Very tasty!

Delicious! I would recommend using the cajun seasoning mix that is listed in the recipe instead of store-bought cajun seasoning.

Very salty. I saw the comments too late. Next time I will make my own Cajun seasoning.

Meal was delicious. Although next time I’ll use less kosher salt.

A delicious dish, but needs to be more sauce. This will definitely be repeat dish in our house.

Loved it! Family loved it. Used a creole seasoning instead of Cajun

Turned out great, my 11 year old had 2 servings. The only thing I would say is be careful with the Cajun season I just this recipe but with less salt and parmesan only because it’s not my favorite but the recipe turned out great.

This dish was really good and so easy! I added chicken in addition to the shrimp and it was awesome.

Okay, so everyone was right about the saltiness. It is probably best to follow her seasoning recipe or read through the comments to see what everyone else might of done to fix this. overall the dish is great and i will definitely make again. 😊

Perfect! Will definitely make again. I also seasoned chicken with Cajun seasoning and added it to the recipe.

Salty! I used 2 Tbsp of Cajun seasoning and it was too salty. I needed to make my own

Really good...add extra heavy cream or it will be dry.

Great. Good on any Cajun dish

This was great! This was the first time for my kids to eat seafood and they surprisingly enjoyed it. I had to add some chicken breasts into it as well for my kids but overall, we all enjoyed it!

AMAZING. I'm gonna cook this once a week. Add basil on top when it's done, it really ties in the flavor. I eyed the salt, and it turned out fine. I didn't follow that part of the recipe. <3

Turned out great. Very yummy! I used angel hair pasta instead of penne.

Missed the notes before cooking so did turn out a bit salty but otherwise a good, simple weeknight dinner.

Tried it twice, decent but it’s not Spicey enough
