Instructions to make Cold Chicken Pasta:
- Cover chicken breast with 1 TBSP olive oil. Rub in salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat pan over medium heat with remaining olive oil. Once pan is hot place chicken and cook for 10 minutes. Then turn chicken over and cook for another 10 minutes.
- Remove chicken from the pan and let rest for 5 minutes. Then cut chicken into bite size pieces. Place chicken in refrigerator for at least an hour.
- This is when I would usually prep the onion, grape tomatoes, basil, and sage. But if you did before, no biggie.
- Cook rotini according to the package. Rinse in cold water.
- In a large bowl mix rotini, onion, garlic, and grape tomatoes.
- Mix in basil, sage, thyme, and oregano.
- Finally mix in chicken, dressing, and parmesan cheese
- Enjoy!
