Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Bell Peppers
Enjoy a vibrant, creamy pasta dish featuring tender grilled chicken breast tossed with whole wheat pasta and crisp bell peppers. Infused with bold Cajun spices and enriched with a light, tangy nonfat Greek yogurt sauce, this meal offers a delightful balance of flavors and textures perfect for a satisfying dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup dry Whole Wheat Pasta (yields approx. 1 cup cooked)
1 cup sliced Bell Peppers (mixed red & green)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Add the chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove from the pan and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sliced bell peppers. Sauté until the peppers are softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Lower the heat to low and stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt into the skillet with the bell peppers, combining well to create a light creamy sauce.
Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet. Toss everything together gently so that the pasta, chicken, and bell peppers are evenly coated with the creamy sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
