This dish balances a satisfying protein boost with refreshing veggies and whole wheat pasta for a flavorful yet health-conscious meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1.5 ounces Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While the pasta cooks, season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the seasoned chicken until fully cooked and golden on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side, then remove from the skillet and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced red bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, ensuring it warms gently without boiling.
Add the sliced chicken and cooked pasta back into the skillet, tossing everything until well combined and heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun seasoning if desired. Serve immediately.
