INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic (minced)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into thin strips and season with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken strips and cook until they are no longer pink in the center, about 5-7 minutes.
While the chicken cooks, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package directions and drain.
Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into thin strips. Add them to the pan with the chicken and sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the light cream cheese until a creamy sauce forms. Mix in the cooked pasta and combine thoroughly.
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or Cajun seasoning as desired before serving.
