PASTA WITH CREAMY CAJUN SAUCE



Pasta With Creamy Cajun Sauce image

I found this recipe on steamykitchen.com. It has a lot of cream, but it is so worth it! This recipe has two different reductions, which makes the sauce have more concentrated flavors and evaporates the liquid. It was very good, and definitely a comfort food! (The preparation and cooking time is probably off a little because I made it a while ago and can't really remember how long it took.)
