Chicken Caesar-Style Pasta Salad Bowl

Ingredients

• 300g pasta (fusilli or penne)
• 2 chicken breasts
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 baby gem lettuces, chopped
• 40g parmesan, grated, plus extra to serve
• 4 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

1. Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water according to the packet instructions. Drain and rinse briefly under cold water to stop it cooking further.
2. Meanwhile, season the chicken breasts and heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Cook for 6-7 minutes per side until cooked through, then slice.
3. In a large bowl, mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard, garlic, and half the parmesan to make the dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
4. Add the pasta, lettuce, and sliced chicken to the bowl and toss to coat in the dressing.
5. Serve topped with the remaining parmesan.
