Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound chicken breast (diced)
- 8 ounces pasta (penne or rotini preferred)
- 1 cup Caesar dressing
- 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 2 cups romaine lettuce (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Optional: croutons (for topping)
Instructions
- Start by cooking the pasta according to package instructions. Aim for al dente, about 8-10 minutes.
- While the pasta cooks, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the diced chicken to the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
- Once the chicken is done, drain the pasta and add it to the skillet with the chicken.
- Pour in the Caesar dressing and mix well until everything is evenly coated. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Finally, stir in the chopped romaine and half of the parmesan cheese. Mix until the lettuce is wilted and everything is combined.
- Serve hot, topped with the remaining parmesan and croutons if desired.
