INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper, diced
1 clove Garlic, minced
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced red bell pepper; sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and lightly charred on the edges.
In a separate pot, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Remove chicken from the skillet and let rest for a couple of minutes. Slice the chicken into strips.
Reduce heat to low. Stir nonfat Greek yogurt into the skillet to create a light, creamy sauce, mixing well with the sautéed vegetables.
Combine the pasta with the vegetable and yogurt sauce, then top with sliced chicken. Adjust seasoning if necessary and serve warm.
