INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Low-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until fully cooked and slightly charred. Remove the chicken and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
In the same skillet, add sliced red bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until they develop a slight char and retain their crispiness.
In a small bowl, combine the cooked pasta and Greek yogurt, stirring to create a light, creamy sauce.
Plate the pasta, then top with sliced Cajun chicken and sautéed bell peppers. Garnish with additional black pepper if desired and serve warm.
