INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a small bowl, combine Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Season the chicken breast evenly with the spice mix on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the seasoned chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely charred.
While the chicken cooks, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a separate bowl, mix nonfat Greek yogurt with lemon juice to create a light cream sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken and combine with the pasta and sliced red bell peppers.
Drizzle the Greek yogurt sauce over the pasta and chicken, tossing gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately and enjoy your spicy, creamy meal.
