Even after the 4th of July is over we all still BBQ. It gets to be an almost every night thing here in our household.
I love it due to the fact that clean up is minimal and the best part, besides the yummy food? I am not cooking it!
So I am now scouring the web for great grilling food recipes. I found this one for the chicken that we love to eat. MMMM, can't wait for dinner.
Grilled Chicken and Pasta Salad
INGREDIENTS
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
steak seasoning to taste
8 ounces rotini pasta
8 ounces mozzarella cheese, cubed
1 red onion, chopped
1 head romaine lettuce, chopped
* 6 cherry tomatoes, chopped
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat the grill for high heat. Season both sides of chicken breast halves with steak seasoning.
2. Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until juices run clear. Remove from heat, cool, and cut into strips.
3. Meanwhile, place the rotini pasta in a large pot of lightly salted boiling water. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, until al dente. Drain, and rinse with cold water to cool.
4. In a large bowl, mix together the cheese, onion, lettuce, and tomatoes. Toss with the cooled chicken and pasta to serve.
