Savor a delightful twist on a classic dish featuring tender Cajun-spiced chicken paired with whole wheat pasta and vibrant bell peppers. The dish is brought together with a creamy, tangy Greek yogurt sauce, creating a perfect balance of spice and creaminess that's both satisfying and energizing.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Penne Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic, minced
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat penne pasta according to the package instructions; once cooked, drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Heat the 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 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked through. Remove from skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the sliced red bell pepper and sauté until they start to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Return the chicken to the skillet with the bell peppers. Stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, mixing well to coat all ingredients evenly.
Gently combine the cooked pasta with the chicken and bell pepper mixture, ensuring the sauce is evenly distributed.
Taste and adjust seasonings with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun seasoning as desired before serving.
