Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta with Zesty Peppers
Pan-seared chicken and crisp bell peppers are tossed in a velvety, spiced Cajun sauce over al dente pasta for a zesty and satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken breast
1.5 oz Dry whole grain penne
0.5 cup Red bell pepper
0.5 cup Yellow bell pepper
0.25 cup Red onion
0.25 cup Plain Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Tomato paste
1 tsp Olive oil
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
PREPARATION
Cook the whole grain penne in a pot of boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente.
Season the chicken breast pieces with half of the Cajun seasoning, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through.
Remove chicken from the skillet and add sliced bell peppers and red onion, sautéing until tender-crisp and lightly charred.
Stir in the tomato paste, garlic powder, and remaining Cajun seasoning, then reduce heat to low.
Whisk in the Greek yogurt and a splash of pasta water to create a velvety sauce, then toss in the cooked pasta and chicken.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
