Zesty Lemon-Herb Chicken Pasta Salad
Tender grilled chicken tossed with chickpea pasta and crisp vegetables in a bright, zesty lemon-herb vinaigrette for a refreshing and filling meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz chicken breast
1.5 oz chickpea pasta
0.5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup cucumber
1 tbsp fresh parsley
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.25 tsp garlic powder
PREPARATION
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the chickpea pasta according to package directions until al dente, then drain and rinse with cold water.
Season the chicken breast with garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, then grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat until fully cooked through.
Slice the cooked chicken into bite-sized strips and halve the cherry tomatoes and cucumber.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and finely chopped parsley to create the dressing.
Add the cooled pasta, chicken strips, and chopped vegetables to the bowl, tossing thoroughly to coat every ingredient in the zesty herb dressing.
