Spicy Cajun Chicken with Creamy Whole Wheat Pasta
Savor the bold flavors of spicy Cajun-seasoned chicken paired with a silky, creamy whole wheat pasta. Light yet satisfying, this dish features tender chicken, a hint of garlic, fresh spinach, and juicy tomatoes, all tossed in a tangy Greek yogurt cream sauce for a burst of flavor in every bite.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
1 cup Spinach
1/4 cup Cherry Tomatoes
PREPARATION
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente; drain and set aside.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season it evenly with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for approximately 5-6 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Once the chicken is cooked, slice it into strips or bite-sized pieces.
In a mixing bowl, combine the nonfat Greek yogurt with a little of the pasta water (if needed) to create a smooth, creamy sauce.
Toss the cooked pasta with the yogurt sauce, then gently fold in the spinach and cherry tomatoes.
Top the pasta with the sliced spicy Cajun chicken and serve immediately.
