INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and allow it to sauté until fragrant.
Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced red and yellow bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt, mixing well to create a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper if needed.
Toss the cooked whole wheat pasta into the skillet, ensuring it is well coated by the sauce and combined with the bell peppers.
Top the pasta with the sliced chicken breast and serve immediately, enjoying the vibrant flavors and creamy texture.
