INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
1/4 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
PREPARATION
Start by seasoning the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken breast, cooking for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sliced red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the peppers are tender.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow it to simmer for 2 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce. Mix well and add a pinch more Cajun seasoning if desired.
Combine the sauce with the cooked whole wheat pasta, ensuring that every strand is nicely coated.
Slice the chicken breast into strips and lay it over the pasta. Serve immediately and enjoy the vibrant mix of flavors.
