1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Paprika

PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and a nice blackened crust forms.
In a separate saucepan, reheat the cooked whole wheat pasta if needed.
In a small bowl, combine nonfat Greek yogurt and unsweetened almond milk. Mix until smooth to create a light creamy sauce.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and slice into strips.
Toss the pasta with the creamy sauce and then gently mix in the sliced blackened chicken.
Serve warm and enjoy your high-protein, flavorful meal.
