INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 cup Bell Peppers (mixed colors)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until it is thoroughly cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the bell peppers and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the light cream cheese until it melts into a creamy sauce. If needed, add a splash of water or pasta cooking water for desired consistency.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken into the skillet with the sauce and bell peppers. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm and enjoy your creamy Cajun chicken pasta.
