Name: Grilled-Chicken Pasta Salad With Artichoke Hearts
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 pound in all); 7 tablespoons olive oil; 1 1/4 teaspoons salt; 1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper; 3/4 pound fusilli; 1 1/4 cups canned, drained artichoke hearts (one 14-ounce can), rinsed and cut into 6 wedges each; 3 scallions including green tops, chopped; 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley; 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar; 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Servings: persons

1
Light the grill or heat the broiler. Coat the chicken with 1 tablespoon of the oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Grill or broil until just done, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes and then cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices.
2
In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the fusilli until just done, about 13 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain thoroughly. In a large bowl, toss the pasta with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
3
Add the chicken, artichoke hearts, scallions, parsley, the remaining 5 tablespoons oil, the vinegar, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and the Parmesan to the pasta and toss well.
4
Wine Recommendation: Artichokes can be tough on wine since they tend to make even the driest ones taste sweet. To counteract this tendency, try an acidic white wine such as a Sancerre from France (made from sauvignon blanc grapes) or a sauvignon blanc from northern Italy.
