Texas Blues, your suggestion inspired us to do something extremely similar

Diced up:
Red onion
several habs
serranos
orange bell pepper
Cut the chix breast into bite sized chunks and tossed them in cajun seasoning.
added butter and oil to a deep calphalon pan (tablespoon each)
browned all the chicken chunks, removed em
added another tablespoon of butter and oil
simmered the chopped stuff until they were getting soft and browned, removed from heat
at the same temp, threw in a can of chicken broth and half a cup of sherry, got it nice and hot, then whisked in a cup of heavy cream, added diced serranos and mostly cooked diced bacon (the lady didn't want all that bacon grease lol). Seasoned with salt and pepper and a bit more cajun seasoning.
At the same time, I boiled fettucini.
Once everything was done, I threw the chopped stuff and the chicken into the pot of cream sauce and mixed it in, brought it back up to a boil, then added the fettucini and tossed it, turning off the heat. As it cooled, I threw some grated parmesan cheese into the mix and boom! done! Picked up some blue moon pumpkin ale. Would have bought Shipyard pumpkinhead and done a rimjob on it but I haven't seen it down here. I miss that about New England :/
If the link to the picture doesn't work, let me know!

Thanks for all the suggestions, everyone! This Sunday, I am definitely going to make the jerk chicken recipe. It sounds so incredible I just can't not make it.
THP, that is exactly how I do my buff sauce! I'm going to have to use rice flour; it seems there is consensus that it is the way to go, and I'm always looking to refine my cooking.
Some great things on here, definitely going to be referring back and looking at other posts in the food section when coming up with things to cook
Thank you again!
Ah! Sorry! I finally figured it out!
