INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Bell Peppers (sliced)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic, minced
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt and pepper. Add to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely seared. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In a separate pot, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In the same skillet, add sliced bell peppers and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy base. Mix well with the bell peppers.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet, stirring to combine and coat evenly with the creamy sauce.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun seasoning if desired, and serve warm.
