Infused with a zesty Cajun twist and a light cream cheese sauce, this dish offers a harmonious blend of spice and creaminess that’s both satisfying and balanced.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
Cajun Seasoning, Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast generously with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side or until thoroughly cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the light cream cheese, allowing it to melt and combine with the bell peppers, creating a light, creamy sauce.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and add the cooked pasta. Toss everything together until well coated in the creamy sauce and heated through.
Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper if desired, then serve immediately.
