Ingredients
Scale
- 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lb. cooked chicken, shredded
- 6 cups cooked, whole wheat bow tie pasta
- 1 tsp oregano
- Juice from one small lemon
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup black olives (I used a 2.5 oz. can)
- 1/2–1 cup sun dried tomatoes (I used a few handfuls)
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds or pine nuts
- Handfuls of fresh basil, chopped
Instructions
- Heat olive oil and minced garlic in a large skillet over medium high heat. Sautee until garlic begins to brown then mix in cooked chicken, pasta, oregano and lemon juice. Reduce heat to medium and stir together ingredients. Add in the feta, parmesan, olives and sun dried tomatoes. Continue to stire until the pasta is fully tossed with all the ingredients. Add in a little more olive oil if pasta seems dry. Top with fresh fresh basil and chopped almonds, mix if desired and serve immediatley.
- This pasta is good hot when first cooked and also delicious when cold. I preferred it cold the next day versus reheated in the microwave.
