INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/4 cup chopped Yellow Onion
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Add olive oil to the skillet and sear the chicken breast for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and nicely browned. Remove from heat and slice into strips.
In a separate pot, prepare whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain.
In the same skillet, sauté the chopped red bell pepper and onion over medium heat until slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Combine the cooked pasta, sautéed vegetables, and sliced chicken in the skillet. Toss gently to mix all flavors together.
Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or Cajun spice if desired, and serve warm.
