INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta
100 g Nonfat Greek Yogurt
75 g Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente; drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add minced garlic and sliced red bell pepper; sauté until they soften, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet, slice it into strips, and return it to the pan.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt to create a creamy sauce, mixing well to coat the chicken and vegetables.
Toss in the cooked pasta and gently combine until the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy, spicy sauce.
Serve warm and enjoy your lighter yet flavorful Cajun chicken pasta.
