A vibrant dish featuring tender Cajun-spiced chicken mingled with whole wheat pasta and fresh vegetables in a light, creamy Greek yogurt sauce. The dish bursts with zesty seasonings and fresh spinach and bell pepper for added crunch and color, making it a balanced and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Fusilli Pasta (cooked)
1/4 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
1 cup fresh Spinach
2 tbsp Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Prepare the chicken by patting it dry and seasoning both sides generously with Cajun seasoning.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked and lightly browned.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest. In the same skillet, add the diced red bell pepper and sauté for 2 minutes, then add the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted.
Meanwhile, prepare whole wheat fusilli pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces. Return the chicken to the skillet with the vegetables.
Stir in the cooked pasta and add the nonfat Greek yogurt, mixing gently until the ingredients are well coated in a light, creamy sauce.
Adjust seasoning to taste and serve warm. Enjoy your healthy, high-protein, and flavorful meal!
