INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
2 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1 cup Bell Peppers (sliced)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and minced garlic, cooking until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and sauté until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Mix in the cooked pasta and add the nonfat Greek yogurt, stirring well to coat the ingredients in a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning if desired.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet and combine all ingredients. Warm through for an additional 1-2 minutes before serving.
