This is a great TGI Friday’s Spicy Cajun Pasta copycat recipe. It’s pretty doggone close to the one served at the restaurant. It has a lovely sauce with a tangy flavor that everyone enjoys.
The cayenne pepper is just enough to please the palate without being ‘ burny ‘. A lovely recipe, quickly prepared for a good midweek dinner.
