INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Mixed Bell Peppers
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Low Sodium Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Begin by bringing a pot of water to a boil. Add the whole wheat pasta and cook until al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Season the 4 oz chicken breast with cajun seasoning, ensuring it's coated evenly.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Place the seasoned chicken in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and lightly charred.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the mixed bell peppers and pour in the chicken broth. Stir and cook for 2-3 minutes until the peppers begin to soften.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce. Make sure the sauce is smooth and heated through, but do not boil to avoid curdling.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and combine with the sauce and peppers.
Finally, add the cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together until well-mixed and heated through.
Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy Cajun chicken pasta.
