INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1 cup Mixed Roasting Vegetables (red bell pepper, zucchini, red onion)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
In a small bowl, combine Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over the chicken breast.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken. Sear each side for about 2 minutes until lightly browned.
Transfer the seared chicken to a baking tray and drizzle with half the olive oil. Roast in the oven for 15-18 minutes until fully cooked.
Meanwhile, toss the mixed vegetables with the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a separate baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables in the oven for about 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Prepare the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions, aiming for a 1/2 cup serving of cooked pasta.
Slice the roasted chicken and plate it alongside the pasta and a generous serving of roasted vegetables.
Finish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired and serve warm.
