Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers
A vibrant, one-pan dish featuring tender Cajun-spiced chicken, whole wheat pasta coated in a light, creamy sauce with Greek yogurt, and crisp bell peppers for a burst of color and flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1.5 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Green Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 clove Garlic
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook until al dente according to package instructions, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic and chopped quarter yellow onion until softened.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced red and green bell peppers. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften but still retain their crunch.
Return the chicken to the skillet along with the drained pasta. Stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, coating all ingredients evenly.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun spice as desired and serve warm.
