INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
2 oz Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breast and sear until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the pepper softens.
Reduce the heat to medium low and stir in the light cream cheese until melted and smooth, creating a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet. Toss everything together to evenly coat with the sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed, then serve hot.
