INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
1/2 cup chopped Red Bell Pepper
1/2 cup sliced Zucchini
1/2 medium Tomato
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Start by cooking the whole wheat pasta in boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast generously with Cajun seasoning on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and lightly charred. Remove the chicken and let it rest briefly before slicing into strips.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onions, red bell pepper, and zucchini. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Add the tomato pieces to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.
Return the chicken strips to the skillet and toss with the vegetables. Then, gently fold in the cooked pasta, ensuring everything is evenly combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm and enjoy your balanced, spicy Cajun chicken and veggie pasta.
