INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Reduced Fat Cream
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the garlic until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken to the pan and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes per side, then remove and let rest.
In the same skillet, add sliced bell pepper and sauté until slightly softened.
Stir in the reduced fat cream and simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken the sauce.
Add the cooked whole wheat pasta to the skillet, tossing to coat in the creamy sauce.
Dice the cooked chicken and return it to the pan, mixing until evenly distributed.
Finish with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, adjust seasonings if needed, and serve immediately.
