Grilled Chicken Pasta Salad with Mixed Vegetables
Enjoy a refreshing and protein-packed pasta salad featuring tender grilled chicken, hearty whole wheat pasta, crisp mixed vegetables, and a perfectly sliced hard-boiled egg, accented by a touch of sweet apple for a burst of natural flavor.
INGREDIENTS
2.75 ounces grilled chicken breast (78g)
1/2 cup cooked whole wheat pasta (70g)
1 hard-boiled egg (50g)
1 cup mixed vegetables (red bell pepper & cucumber, 76g)
1/4 cup diced apple (40g)
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. Grill for about 5-6 minutes per side until thoroughly cooked. Once done, allow it to rest for a few minutes and then slice into bite-size pieces.
Meanwhile, cook whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cool water to stop the cooking process.
Prepare the vegetables by dicing red bell pepper and cucumber into small pieces. Dice the apple into small cubes.
Peel and slice the hard-boiled egg into rounds.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, grilled chicken slices, mixed vegetables, and diced apple. Gently toss to mix.
Top the salad with the sliced egg and, if desired, a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste.
Serve chilled or at room temperature and enjoy your balanced, flavorful lunch.
