Italian Dressing….It is so versatile! Here is a great, quick and lowfat dish for you to try!
Wednesday, March 7th, 2012I want to thank Kraft foods for bottling Zesty Italian Dressing! I use it on a lot of things, I mean a lot! It’s great for marinating chicken and shrimp. If you are a liver fan (I’m not) you can marinate the liver in Italian Dressing to remove the liver taste, why not just eat a steak? I love it over fresh veggies for a quick salad, it’s great on salad; but one of my most favorite ways to use it is this quick and easy ZESTY CHICKEN AND PASTA ~
It is a really forgiving recipe, just use up the fresh veggies you have in the fridge! The kids even will eat it!!
ZESTY CHICKEN & PASTA ~
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed
1/2 – 3/4 cup Zesty Italian Dressing
2 cups broccoli florets
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 large red bell pepper thinly sliced
1 T. Parsley, chopped
1/4 cup fresh Parmesan Cheese
8oz. cooked and drained pasta – whatever you have in the cupboard
Cook chicken in 1/4 cup dressing until pink, add veggies and parsley. Cook until tender, stirring occasionally. Toss with pasta and remaining dressing, sprinkle with cheese.
Cheers!
Chef Kathy
