INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Pinch Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the 5 oz chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, until fully cooked and lightly browned.
During the last few minutes of cooking, add sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook until tender but still crisp.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, combining it well with the chicken and peppers.
Mix in the cooked whole wheat pasta, ensuring the pasta is evenly coated with the sauce and vegetables.
Adjust seasoning with extra salt, pepper, or Cajun spice if desired, and serve hot.
