Savor the fiery kick of paprika-infused chicken paired with hearty whole wheat pasta, accented with vibrant red bell pepper and a hint of olive oil. This dish delivers a robust taste experience, balancing spice and texture, creating a satisfying meal for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup dry Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Chili Powder
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
While the pasta cooks, pat the chicken breast dry and season evenly with paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken breast and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).
Slice the red bell pepper into thin strips and add them to the skillet during the last 2 minutes of cooking to soften slightly while retaining their vibrant color and crunch.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips, then toss it with the drained pasta. Optionally, drizzle a little extra olive oil or add fresh herbs for garnish.
Serve warm and enjoy the fusion of spicy, savory flavors with the wholesome heartiness of whole wheat pasta.
