Savor the vibrant fusion of tender Cajun-spiced chicken, whole wheat pasta, and colorful bell peppers coated in a light, creamy sauce. This dish is a satisfying and balanced meal that delivers a spicy kick alongside creamy comfort perfect for dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/4 cup Half & Half
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast generously with the Cajun seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked through. Remove the chicken and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add sliced red bell pepper and baby spinach, sautéing until slightly softened, about 2-3 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the half & half to create a light, creamy sauce. Allow the sauce to warm through but avoid boiling.
Combine the cooked pasta, sautéed vegetables, and sliced chicken in the skillet. Toss gently to coat everything in the creamy Cajun sauce.
Adjust seasoning if needed and serve warm.
