Spicy Cajun Chicken with Creamy Pasta
Enjoy a bold fusion of spicy Cajun-seasoned chicken paired with a dreamy, light cream sauce tossed with whole wheat pasta. This dish brings a satisfying blend of savory heat and creamy texture, accented with vibrant red bell pepper and garlic for an extra layer of flavor.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/4 cup Light Cream
1/4 medium 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 instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Place the seasoned chicken breast in the pan and cook for approximately 4-5 minutes per side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove the chicken from the pan and slice it into strips.
In the same pan, add diced red bell pepper and briefly sauté for 1-2 minutes.
Pour in the light cream, stirring to create a slightly thickened creamy sauce. Allow it to simmer for 1-2 minutes.
Toss the cooked pasta in the creamy sauce until well coated.
Serve the pasta with the sliced spicy Cajun chicken on top, drizzling any extra sauce over the dish.
