Catelli Classic Penne Rigate

Ingredients

1 pkg (500 g) Catelli® Classic Penne Rigate
1 cup (250 mL) Greek-style or herbed vinaigrette, divided
1 lb (500 g) Sliced chicken breast
2 tsp (10 mL) Dried oregano leaves
1 Red onion, sliced
1 Each large red and orange pepper, sliced
1 cup (250 mL) Crumbled feta cheese
Slivered black olives (optional)

Cooking Steps

Step 1

Cook penne according to package directions.

Step 2

Meanwhile, set a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) dressing, chicken and oregano; stir-fry until golden and no pink remains. Remove to a plate. Add 2 tbsp (30 mL) additional dressing, onions and peppers to skillet; stir-fry until tender-crisp.

Step 3

Add hot cooked penne, chicken and remaining dressing; toss to combine. Sprinkle with feta and olives (if using) to serve.

Tips

Replace the chicken breast with slices of steak or pork tenderloin.
Prepare a vegetarian variation using rinsed and drained chickpeas or cannellini beans, sold in cans, and omitting the meat cooking step.
Leftovers are just as delicious served cold and are easy to take to school or the office. Add a small amount of vinaigrette to enhance the dish when you have it.
For best results, do not use salad dressings that contain large pieces of feta cheese.
