Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers
Enjoy a vibrant and flavorful Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers, perfect for a satisfying dinner. Tender pieces of Cajun-seasoned chicken meld with whole wheat pasta and crisp red bell peppers in a light, creamy sauce that sings with spice and aroma.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
0.5 medium Red Bell Pepper
2 tablespoons Light Cream Cheese
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 Garlic Clove
2 tablespoons Water
PREPARATION
Begin by seasoning the chicken breast with the Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken. Sauté until the chicken is cooked through and slightly browned, about 5-6 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add finely chopped garlic and the sliced red bell pepper, sautéing until the peppers are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Return the chicken to the skillet. Add the light cream cheese and water, stirring continuously to create a light, creamy sauce that coats the chicken and vegetables.
In a separate pot, combine the whole wheat pasta with a little water if needed and warm it through until tender.
Toss the pasta gently into the creamy chicken and pepper mixture, ensuring everything is well combined. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve immediately and enjoy a balanced, flavorful meal.
