Savor the bold flavors of Cajun-spiced chicken paired with a luscious, light cream sauce over whole wheat pasta. This dish offers a delightful balance of spice and creaminess, accented by fresh spinach and garlic, delivering a satisfying meal that's both nutritious and delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Penne Pasta
1/4 cup Light Cream
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup Spinach
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 Garlic clove
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sauté the chicken breast until it is cooked through and golden on the outside, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Stir in the light cream and add the spinach; cook until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes.
Add the cooked whole wheat penne pasta to the skillet and mix well with the cream sauce.
Slice the chicken breast into strips and combine with the pasta and sauce, stirring to evenly coat.
Taste and adjust the Cajun seasoning if needed before serving.
