Can I use shrimp instead of chicken?

Absolutely! Swap in 1 lb peeled shrimp—they only need 2-3 minutes per side in the skillet. Add them at the very end to prevent overcooking.

How do I reduce the spice level?

Cut the Cajun seasoning in half and add 1 tsp sweet paprika instead. You can always add more heat at the table with red pepper flakes.

The sauce and chicken keep separately for 1 day in the fridge—just reheat gently and toss with freshly cooked pasta.

Likely from high heat or pre-shredded cheese. Next time, grate your own cheese and add it off the heat, stirring slowly.

Half-and-half works (sauce will be thinner), or try evaporated milk for richness without all the fat.
