INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
2 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Prepare the ingredients by thinly slicing the red bell pepper and mincing the garlic.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, then add the chicken. Sauté for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sliced bell pepper, sautéing until tender, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the low-fat cream cheese and low-fat milk; mix until a smooth, creamy sauce forms.
Gently toss in the cooked whole wheat pasta and combine to coat evenly with the sauce.
Serve the pasta topped with the sliced Cajun-spiced chicken and enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal.
