Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring succulent Cajun-seasoned chicken breast paired with whole wheat pasta and a medley of colorful veggies. This meal offers a harmonious mix of spice and freshness, with tender chicken, perfectly al dente pasta, and crisp vegetables, all lightly tossed in a fragrant garlic olive oil sauce.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 cup Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1/2 cup Zucchini, sliced
1/2 small Onion, sliced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Prepare the ingredients by slicing the red bell pepper, zucchini, and onion, and mincing the garlic.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil and sear the chicken breast until golden, about 3-4 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent.
Add the red bell pepper and zucchini to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until slightly tender yet retaining crunch.
Meanwhile, prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and add to the skillet.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and toss together with the vegetables and pasta, ensuring even seasoning.
Finish with an additional sprinkle of Cajun seasoning if desired, and serve warm.
