Prep Time: 30 min
Cook Time: 20 min
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 6 oz Anthony's Penne Rigate
- 2 med. boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 zucchini, cubed
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 vidalia onion, thinly sliced
- 1 pint grape tomatoes, halved
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp garlic, minced
- 8 oz marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup Italian dressing
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Directions
- Marinate chicken in Italian dressing for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Preheat grill on medium heat.
- Cook Anthony's penne according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Mix all vegetables together and toss with olive oil and salt and pepper.
- Place marinated chicken breasts on grill and cook until done (about 5 minutes on each side). When cooked through, remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Lightly coat the grill pan with non-stick cooking spray and place on grill to preheat the pan. Once the grill pan is hot, add zucchini, peppers, onions and tomatoes. Grill for about 5 minutes, vegetables should still be bright and firm.
- Meanwhile, add the cooked pasta to a saucepan with marinara sauce and half the grilled vegetables. Heat through and mix well.
- Place pasta and vegetables on a serving platter, top with sliced grilled chicken breasts and remaining grilled vegetables.
Special note: This recipe requires the use of a grill sauté pan for vegetables, or skewers to make vegetable kabobs. If you do not have a grill pan, place cut veggies on a skewer and grill.
