A colorful medley of sautéed vegetables adds freshness and crunch, making this dish as nutritious as it is delicious.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup sliced Zucchini
1/2 cup cooked Spinach
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
Blackened Seasoning Blend to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and generously rub with the blackened seasoning blend on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked and nicely charred. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add the olive oil and sauté the red bell pepper and zucchini for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the cooked spinach to the vegetables and stir for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove the veggies from the skillet and set aside.
In another pan, gently warm the low-fat milk and toss with the cooked whole wheat pasta to create a light, creamy sauce. If needed, add a pinch of salt and pepper for taste.
Combine the creamy pasta with the sautéed vegetables on a plate and top with sliced blackened chicken.
Serve warm and enjoy the harmonious blend of spicy, creamy, and fresh flavors.
