INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 teaspoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Paprika
1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
1/2 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the 4 ounces of chicken breast with salt, black pepper, and half of the paprika.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and golden.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and slice it into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, add the diced red bell pepper, remaining paprika, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the pepper softens slightly.
Return the chicken to the skillet and toss with the sautéed peppers and garlic. Add the cooked pasta and gently mix until combined and well coated in the spicy sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve warm.
