INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
0.75 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 medium roasted Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
0.5 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Toss the red bell pepper with olive oil and a pinch of Cajun seasoning, then roast on a baking sheet for 15-20 minutes until soft and slightly charred.
Season the chicken breast generously with Cajun seasoning. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until beautifully browned and cooked through.
While the chicken cooks, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the nonfat Greek yogurt with a pinch of Cajun seasoning to create a light, creamy sauce.
Slice the cooked chicken and combine with the warm pasta. Fold in the roasted bell pepper slices and drizzle the creamy yogurt sauce over the top. Toss lightly to combine all flavors.
Plate the dish and serve warm, enjoying the spicy kick alongside the creamy pasta and sweet roasted bell peppers.
