INGREDIENTS
3 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
0.5 tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
2 cloves Garlic, minced
½ cup Diced Tomatoes (no salt added)
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
While pasta cooks, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and crushed red pepper flakes, sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add sliced chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until lightly browned and nearly cooked through.
Add sliced red bell pepper to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Pour in the diced tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to finish cooking.
Toss the cooked pasta with the spicy chicken and bell pepper mixture. Stir gently to combine all elements well.
Serve warm and enjoy your balanced meal.
