Roasted Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta Salad


I have kind of a crazy obsession with chicken salad. This Cooking Light pasta is basically a waldorf chicken salad pasta, and you have to think of it like that to not think that adding grapes to pasta sounds ridiculous. I cooked the chicken breasts ahead of time in a crock pot, but there's a decent amount of mise en place here so it still takes 30 minutes or so to make even if you have a fancy instant boil burner. Additionally, the pasta is better room temperature or cold, so allow a few minutes for your pasta to cool down. Add a bit of oil to the bow ties to keep them from sticking if you want them to cool while you assemble the rest of the dish (as opposed to preparing and sticking in the fridge).
