How to Make Grilled Chicken Pasta Salad
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, grilling for 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. Slice into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked rotini pasta, sliced grilled chicken, halved cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, diced yellow bell pepper, and fresh arugula or mixed greens.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well combined and smooth.
- Pour the dressing over the salad mixture, and gently toss to ensure everything is evenly coated.
- Finish off the salad with lemon slices and fresh parsley before serving.

Notes
Optional: Add feta cheese crumbles for a creamy, tangy finish. Ensure the salad chills in the refrigerator for 30 minutes after mixing for enhanced flavors.
