INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
2 oz Whole Wheat Pasta (dry)
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1/2 medium Zucchini
1/4 medium Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Cut the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion into bite-sized pieces; toss them with olive oil, a pinch of salt, and half of the Cajun seasoning.
Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast on both sides with the remaining Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side or until cooked through. Once done, slice the chicken into strips.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
Combine the cooked pasta, roasted vegetables, and sliced chicken in a large bowl. Drizzle with lemon juice and gently toss to mix.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving.
