INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
Cajun Seasoning to taste
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Prepare the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into thin strips.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
Lower the heat and stir in the light cream cheese until melted, forming a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet, tossing everything until evenly coated with the sauce and heated through.
Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning, salt, or pepper if desired before serving.
