INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup sliced Mixed Bell Peppers
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Slice the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for approximately 5-7 minutes until they are fully cooked and lightly browned.
Stir in the sliced bell peppers and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they soften slightly but retain a bit of crunch.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce that coats the chicken and vegetables.
Toss in the cooked pasta and gently mix to combine all ingredients. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, protein-packed meal.
