1 . Stage

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

2 . Stage

Sprinkle both sides of chicken breast with 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning, or to taste.

Grill chicken breast and pork sausage on the preheated grill until browned and no longer pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut chicken and sausage into bite-size pieces.

Mix cornstarch into remaining 1/2 cup half-and-half in a small bowl until smooth; pour into skillet and stir until sauce simmers and thickens, about 5 minutes. Toss cooked farfalle pasta into mixture until coated; season with additional Cajun seasoning and dried basil.
