INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Penne Pasta
1 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup chopped Yellow Onion
1/4 cup Light Cream Cheese
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the chicken. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Sauté until softened for about 2-3 minutes.
Add the sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and cook for an additional 3 minutes until just tender.
Stir in the light cream cheese, allowing it to melt and combine with the veggies to form a creamy sauce.
Combine the cooked whole wheat penne pasta with the sauce and toss until well coated.
Add the sliced Cajun chicken on top or mix it in, and heat through for another minute.
Serve immediately and enjoy your creamy, flavorful Cajun chicken pasta.
