INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup sliced Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup sliced Zucchini
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Begin by boiling a pot of water and cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides evenly with Cajun seasoning.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once heated, add the seasoned chicken breast.
Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and a nice crust forms. Remove chicken from skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the sliced red bell pepper and zucchini. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Toss the cooked pasta with the sautéed vegetables. Top with sliced Cajun chicken and drizzle any remaining pan juices over the top.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
