Light Greek Pasta

What you'll need:

2 oz. Poached chicken breast,  diced
1-2 small sweet peppers,  chopped
1 oz. Fat free feta cheese, crumbled
2 oz. Orchiette pasta or other small shape
Pinch or oregano, dried
Salt & pepper
Cooking spray, olive oil flavor

•Cook pasta to package directions.   While the pasta cooks, preheat a small saute pan, coated with cooking spray, over medium-low heat.  Cook the peppers with a pinch of salt, pepper and oregano until the peppers are cooked but still crisp, 5-7 minutes.

•Drain the pasta,  reserving 1/4 cup of the pasta water.  Reduce heat on saute pan to low and add into the peppers the pasta, chicken and pasta water and cook until the chicken is hot and the water absorbed, about 3 minutes.

•Turn off the heat, add the feta, mix and serve!  Serves 1 and makes a great dinner with a side salad.
