INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
0.5 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
0.25 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 teaspoon Paprika
0.5 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
2 cloves Garlic
Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
PREPARATION
Dice the red bell pepper and mince the garlic.
Season the chicken breast with paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté garlic until fragrant, then add the seasoned chicken.
Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through and slightly charred at the edges.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest. In the same skillet, toss in the diced red bell pepper to soften slightly for 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the plain Greek yogurt and a splash of water (if needed) to create a light, creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning as desired.
Slice the chicken into strips and return to the skillet along with the cooked whole wheat pasta. Toss everything together.
Serve warm, ensuring a balanced mix of chicken, pasta, and sauce.
