INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup cooked Whole Wheat Pasta
2 cups Baby Spinach
1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Dijon Mustard
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F. Once done, let it rest before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
Cook the whole wheat pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, baby spinach, and sliced grilled chicken.
In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper to create the vinaigrette.
Drizzle the lemon vinaigrette over the pasta salad and toss gently until all ingredients are well coated.
Serve immediately or chill briefly for a cool, refreshing lunch.
