INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Low-Fat Cream
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.
Reduce heat and stir in the low-fat cream, letting it warm up to create a light sauce.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet, then mix in the cooked pasta. Toss everything together ensuring an even coating of the cream sauce and spices.
Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed, then serve warm.
