Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers
Savor the vibrant flavors of tender Cajun-spiced chicken paired with whole wheat pasta and colorful bell peppers in a creamy, light sauce. This dish delivers a satisfying, wholesome meal that balances savory spices with fresh produce and a creamy finish.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 medium Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
1/4 cup Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked. Remove the chicken and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced bell pepper and a splash of chicken broth. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and stir in the cooked pasta.
Reduce the heat to low and gently mix in the Greek yogurt along with any remaining chicken broth to create a creamy sauce, ensuring it’s heated through without boiling.
Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning if desired and serve warm.
