INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Whole Wheat Pasta (cooked)
1/3 cup Chickpeas (cooked)
1/2 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Season the chicken breast with salt, pepper, and optional herbs of your choice.
Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side until fully cooked. Let it rest for a few minutes and then slice into strips.
While the chicken cooks, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the whole wheat pasta until al dente, following package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a separate baking dish, toss the chopped bell peppers and zucchini with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 15 minutes or until vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, chickpeas, roasted vegetables, and grilled chicken slices.
Drizzle with an additional teaspoon of olive oil if desired and gently toss all ingredients to mix.
Serve warm or at room temperature, enjoying the balanced flavors and textures.
