Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers
Enjoy a vibrant twist on a classic pasta dish featuring tender Cajun-spiced chicken, whole wheat pasta, and crisp bell peppers enveloped in a light, creamy sauce that delivers a satisfying balance of flavors and textures.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Begin by seasoning the chicken breast on both sides with half of the Cajun seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly charred.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
In a separate pot, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Return the skillet to medium heat and add the sliced red bell peppers. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the light cream cheese along with the remaining Cajun seasoning, allowing it to melt and create a creamy sauce that coats the peppers.
Combine the sliced chicken and cooked pasta into the skillet, stirring thoroughly to ensure all components are evenly mixed in the creamy sauce.
Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve warm and enjoy your high-protein, flavorful meal.
