INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 tablespoons Plain Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1/2 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan Cheese
PREPARATION
Cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove chicken and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, toss in the sliced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, mixing well with the sautéed peppers.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and combine with the creamy pepper sauce.
Slice the chicken into strips and layer on top of the pasta mixture. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
