  • =

Directions

1

Cook pasta to packet instructions (cut 1minute off the packet instructions for'al dente' however i like to give it the bite test to see if its perfect!).

2

While the pasta is cooking, steam or boil your broccoli for about 15minutes, or to your liking, however i find a slightly softer texture is better with this dish.

3

Grill the chicken, I used a foreman grill, but you can broil, bake or fry it, as long as its cooked!

4

Now this is the fun part, when everything is done, throw everything in a salad bowl except the cheese, pour the olive oil on top (if you need more than 4tablespoons go for it, I didnt really measure it).

5

Add pepper and cheese.

6

Serve warm, or chilled.
