INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup Bell Pepper slices
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely browned. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the bell pepper slices and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until they soften slightly while maintaining crispness.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, then add the cooked pasta. Toss everything together gently to coat evenly.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and mix well, ensuring all ingredients are warmed through and well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed before serving.
