Pasta with Chicken Salad Recipe

Pasta with Chicken Salad Recipe - 18 cups

Ingredients:

1 pound package rotini, cooked al dente

Italian Vinaigrette

2 cups Chicken Stock

2 whole chicken breasts, skinned and boned

1/2 bunch broccoli, florets only

1/2 head cauliflower, florets only

12 fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced

1 red pepper, diced

1 green pepper, diced

15-ounce can artichoke hearts, quartered

15-ounce can whole baby corn spears

12 cherry tomatoes

Salt and black pepper to taste

Method:

In a bowl, while rotini are still warm, toss with just enough vinaigrette to moisten. Chill. Bring stock to a boil, add chicken and cook over medium heat 20 minutes, or until chicken is done. Drain chicken. Cool. Cut into 1-inch cubes. Chill. Reserve broth for another use. In a covered vegetables steamer basket over boiling water, steam broccoli and cauliflower 1-2 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Chill. Just before serving, combine the pasta, chicken and vegetables. Toss with additional Italian Vinaigrette, season with salt and pepper.
