INGREDIENTS

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • steak seasoning to taste
  • 8 ounces rotini pasta
  • 8 ounces mozzarella cheese, cubed
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
  • 6 cherry tomatoes, chopped

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat the grill for high heat. Season both sides of chicken breast halves with steak seasoning.
  2. Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until juices run clear. Remove from heat, cool, and cut into strips.
  3. Meanwhile, place the rotini pasta in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente. Drain, and rinse with cold water to cool.
  4. In a large bowl, mix together the cheese, onion, lettuce, and tomatoes. Toss with the cooled chicken and pasta to serve.

This recipe was really tasty. I used Monterey pepperjack cheese instead of mozarella and it was wonderful. It added some spice to the dish. I will definately make this again.

This is a wonderful salad, my husband would not eat cold pasta salad, but after me asking him to just "try" this loves it and asks me to make it again and again! We use our own dressings that we like and I make it up in a large tupperware container and it lasts 4 or 5 days!
