INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then 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 breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and golden on the outside.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a minute before slicing it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the chopped red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet along with the cooked pasta. Stir in the Greek yogurt to create a light, creamy sauce that evenly coats the ingredients.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed, then serve immediately.
