INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Fresh Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 Garlic clove
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and add the whole wheat pasta. Cook according to package directions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chicken breast and minced garlic. Sauté until the chicken is cooked through and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and add to the skillet.
Thinly slice the fresh bell pepper and add to the skillet with the chicken. Sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until the bell peppers start to soften while remaining crisp.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, mixing thoroughly to combine with the chicken and peppers.
Add the cooked pasta to the skillet and gently toss to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun spice if desired before serving.
