INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 tablespoons Non-fat Greek Yogurt
1/2 cup Mixed Bell Peppers
1/2 cup Zucchini
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss the mixed bell peppers and zucchini with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 15-20 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
While the vegetables roast, season the chicken breast on both sides with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken breast for about 5-6 minutes per side or until fully cooked and golden on the outside. Once cooked, slice the chicken breast into strips.
Prepare the whole wheat pasta according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt with a pinch of salt and pepper. If desired, add a splash of water or a little pasta water to loosen the sauce.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy yogurt sauce, then top with the sliced Cajun chicken and roasted vegetables. Serve immediately and enjoy!
