INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Minced Garlic
PREPARATION
- Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside. 
- Season the chicken breast with the Cajun seasoning on both sides. 
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. 
- Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into strips. 
- In the same skillet, add sliced bell pepper and sauté for 3-4 minutes until just tender. 
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, mixing well with the bell peppers. 
- Add the cooked pasta and sliced chicken back into the skillet. Toss everything together until well combined and heated through. 
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then serve hot.
