GREEK CHICKEN PASTA SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook the pasta according to package instructions, drain and allow to cool.
• Meanwhile, spray a grill pan with olive oil and set over medium heat. Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise and arrange the four pieces on the grill pan. Sprinkle with Stone House Seasoning and cook on one side for 4 minutes. Turn over and cook on the other side until the chicken is cooked throughout and registers 165º F when checked with an internal thermometer, about 4 more minutes. Remove the chicken from the grill pan and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add the halved grape tomatoes, cucumber slices, diced peppers and onions, pitted olives, diced chicken and the feta cheese to the pasta.

GREEK-STYLE CHICKEN PASTA SALAD

Steps:

• Cook pasta as directed until al dente, careful not to overcook the pasta, just until chewy and firm, but cooked; drain well.
• Rinse in cold water.
• Mix together all pasta ingredients in a bowl.
• Mix all dressing ingredients; add to pasta mixture; toss well to coat.
• Let sit in refrigerator for 2 or more hours before serving, to blend the flavours.
• Sprinkle more Feta cheese on top to garnish.
• ***NOTE*** since this is a big favorite in my house, I usually just cook up the entire package of pasta, and just increase the vegetable amounts, there is really no need to double the dressing ingredients if you should use the whole package of pasta, as the salad may become oily, but by all means it may certainly be doubled if desired. The bacon is optional, I rarely add it.
