Chicken Ranch Pasta Salad with Bell Peppers
Tender grilled chicken tossed with brown rice pasta and crisp bell peppers in a creamy, herb-flecked Greek yogurt ranch dressing.
INGREDIENTS
3 oz chicken breast
0.25 cup brown rice pasta
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.25 cup Greek yogurt
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp dried dill
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp onion powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh chives
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the brown rice pasta until al dente, then drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
Season the chicken breast with a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then grill or pan-sear over medium-high heat for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before dicing it into bite-sized pieces along with the red bell pepper.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper until smooth and creamy.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, diced chicken, and bell peppers, then pour the ranch dressing over the top and toss until every ingredient is well-coated.
Garnish with freshly minced chives and serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
