INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1 medium Red Bell Pepper, sliced
1 medium Zucchini, sliced
1/4 small Red Onion, sliced
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
Cajun Seasoning, to taste
1 clove Garlic, minced
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package directions until al dente; drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned chicken breast to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until thoroughly cooked and golden brown.
While the chicken is cooking, in another pan or after removing the chicken, lightly sauté the red bell pepper, zucchini, and red onion until they begin to soften, about 3-4 minutes.
Slice the cooked chicken into strips and combine with the sautéed vegetables and cooked pasta in a bowl.
Toss everything together, adjust seasoning with extra Cajun seasoning if desired, and serve warm.
