INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup Bell Peppers
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 clove Garlic
1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic; sauté until they’re fragrant and translucent.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and lightly browned.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and sauté for 2-3 minutes until just tender.
Lower the heat and return the chicken to the skillet. Mix in the cooked pasta, then stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Taste and adjust the seasonings if needed, then serve warm.
