Enjoy a vibrant dish featuring spicy Cajun-seasoned chicken paired with whole-grain pasta and a medley of creamy vegetables.

INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Grain Pasta
2 tbsp Light Cream Cheese
1 cup Baby Spinach
1/2 cup Cherry Tomatoes
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
2 tbsp Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
PREPARATION
Begin by slicing the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry and season evenly with Cajun seasoning.
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, sear the chicken pieces until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium and add the whole grain pasta (pre-cooked) to the same skillet along with the light cream cheese and Greek yogurt. Stir until a light, creamy sauce forms.
Add in the baby spinach and halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften slightly.
Return the spicy chicken to the skillet and gently toss everything together to combine the flavors well.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, flavorful meal.
