INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/2 medium Bell Pepper
1/4 cup Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Garlic
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Begin by cooking the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente, then drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breast with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the minced garlic, sautéing until fragrant.
Place the seasoned chicken breast in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until fully cooked through. Remove from the pan and slice into strips.
In the same skillet, add sliced bell pepper and sauté for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
Lower the heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt, mixing it with the bell peppers to create a creamy sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional Cajun seasoning, salt, or pepper if needed.
Combine the cooked pasta with the creamy bell pepper sauce, then add the sliced chicken. Toss gently until everything is well coated.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, protein-packed meal.
