Savor a vibrant, creamy pasta dish featuring tender Cajun-spiced chicken, colorful bell peppers, and a light, tangy cream sauce tossed with whole wheat pasta. This recipe is both satisfying and balanced, perfect for a hearty lunch or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 serving (50g dry) Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 medium Yellow Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Light Cream
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
2 cloves Garlic, minced
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-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and let rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red and yellow bell peppers to the skillet and sauté until they begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Pour in the light cream and allow the sauce to slightly thicken, stirring to combine with the peppers and garlic.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and toss to coat in the creamy sauce. Slice the cooked chicken and layer it over the pasta.
Finish by adding extra Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. Serve warm and enjoy.
