INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Slice the red bell pepper into strips, drizzle with half the olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and roast on a baking sheet for 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Meanwhile, season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Cook the chicken breast for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly charred on the outside. Once done, let it rest for a couple of minutes before slicing into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta with the nonfat Greek yogurt. Add a dash more Cajun seasoning if desired, stirring until evenly coated.
Plate the creamy pasta, top with sliced Cajun chicken and roasted bell peppers, and serve immediately.
