INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Non-Fat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Jerk Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F. Toss sliced red bell pepper with half the olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the peppers roast, pat the chicken breast dry and rub evenly with jerk seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining olive oil. Sear the chicken breast for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden, then lower heat and cook through until internal temperature reaches 165°F (about 6-8 minutes total). Remove from pan and let rest, then slice thinly.
In the meantime, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and return to the pot.
Stir in the non-fat Greek yogurt into the warm pasta to create a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Plate the creamy pasta, top with the sliced jerk-spiced chicken and roasted bell peppers. Serve immediately and enjoy the flavorful balance of spice, creaminess, and sweetness.
