INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1.5 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
2 tablespoons Light Cream Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
2 cloves Garlic
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta in boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Lower the heat and stir in the light cream cheese until a smooth sauce forms. If needed, add a splash of pasta water to adjust the consistency.
Combine the pasta, sliced chicken, and bell peppers with the creamy sauce. Toss gently to ensure even coating.
Serve immediately while warm and enjoy the creamy, spicy flavors of this delightful dish.
