Instructions: 1. Heat the grill. When the fire is ready, spray oil on the grid. Grill the chicken breasts 4 minutes per side. Remove, thinly slice, and set aside in a bowl. Add the cooked pasta and toss.
2. Cut the beans to same length as a cooked rotini. slice them lengthwise if thick. Cook the green beans until tender, drain well, and add to the pasta. Add cucumber, salad dressing, orange zest, herb, pepper, and radishes. 3. Distribute the salad greens to six plates and apportion the pasta salad over the greens. Serve at room temperature with bread. As written: 242 cals, 3g fiber, 2.5g fat, 9% CHANGES AND TEST RESULTS: We decided on a fat free salad dressing that had three basic flavors: thyme, lemon, mustard. Added fresh garlic. We halved the amount of chicken and cucumber; we used fresh thyme and basil instead of dried dill. After marinating for 8 hours, we cooked the chicken for 4 minutes on the George Foreman grill. We also cooked the marinade from the bag, adding the juice from 1/2-large orange. To that we added dressing from the bottle to measure 1/3-cup total. We assembled the salad and poured the dressing over it (the herbs were not cooked). We got two meals for two people: not quite 2/3 was served as a main course. The other 1/3 was served as a side dish with soup. Just the chicken, as revised: 319 cals, 3g fiber, 2g fat (5% cff). COMMENTS: Very light, refreshing salad. Ideal for a picnic, packed lunch or buffet: it wont spoil. Can be served cold or at room temperature or warmed. Since we had a little trouble keeping the salad on the fork, we added about 2 tablespoons of a fat-free peppery-ranch style salad dressing the second night, on the patio, with pea soup and crackers. - Hannemans 05/09/2000 Description: "Grill, grill pan, or electric grill." NOTES : The taste depends upon the salad dressing. We used a fat free lemon, thyme, mustard "Vinaigrette." This recipe is very low in fat and makes a great salad. The chicken breasts may be broiled and then sliced. pasta salad with chicken (foreman), green beans and radishes. Refreshing and tasty with the citrus. You may want to use a thicker dressing as we did on the reruns. There are two recipes here. the original and our comments. Email this Recipe:
