Creamy Italian Chicken Pasta Salad
Chilled chickpea pasta tossed with tender grilled chicken and crisp garden vegetables in a velvety herbed yogurt dressing.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz cooked chicken breast
0.75 cup cooked chickpea pasta
0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
0.5 cup diced cucumber
2 tbsp minced red onion
0.25 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp red wine vinegar
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp dried basil
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.13 tsp sea salt
0.13 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Prepare the chickpea pasta by boiling in salted water according to package directions until al dente, then drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
Slice the pre-cooked chicken breast into thin, bite-sized strips or cubes.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, dried basil, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper until the dressing is creamy and well-combined.
Halve the cherry tomatoes, dice the cucumber, and finely mince the red onion.
Add the chilled pasta, chicken, tomatoes, cucumber, and onion to the bowl with the dressing.
Toss all ingredients together gently until everything is evenly coated in the herbed sauce.
Serve immediately or let it sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
