Chicken Pasta Salad

Ingredients
  

  • - 8 ounces fusilli or rotini pasta
  • - 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • - 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • - 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • - 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • - 1/4 red onion diced
  • - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
  • - 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • - 1/2 teaspoon salt plus more for pasta water
  • - 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • - 2 cups cooked chicken diced
  • - 1 pint grape tomatoes halved
  • - 1 green bell pepper diced
  • - 1 cup frozen corn thawed

Instructions
 

  • Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Once cooked, drain and rinse it under cool water to stop the cooking process, then set aside.
  • While the pasta is cooking, let's whip up a delicious dressing! In a big serving bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, diced red onion, chopped dill, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Whisk it all together until the mixture is smooth and well-emulsified.
  • Now it's time to marry our pasta with that lovely dressing! Pour the cooked pasta into the bowl with the dressing and mix it all together. Next, add in the diced chicken, halved grape tomatoes, diced green bell pepper, and thawed corn. Toss everything gently until it’s all combined and nicely coated in that creamy dressing.
  • For the best flavor experience, chill the pasta salad in the fridge for about 30 minutes before serving. This short wait allows all those delicious flavors to mingle beautifully. Enjoy your refreshing Chicken Pasta Salad!
