Greek Chicken Pasta Salad

Ingredients

  • Kosher salt
  • 3 cups dried macaroni, such as elbow or cavatappi 
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 cup English cucumber, diced
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
  • 1-2 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded and cooled 
  • ½ cup Kalamata olives, halved
  • ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
  • ¼ cup parsley, chopped
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely diced
  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • ½ tsp dried oregano
  • Sea salt and ground black pepper
Dressing
  • 4 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 tbsp olive oil 
Garnish
  • Extra feta crumbles
  • Lemon wedges
  • Stuffed grapevine leaves

Instructions

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni and cook until it is al dente. Drain in a colander, rinse with cold water, and shake until most of the water has been drained.
  • Place the macaroni in a large bowl, drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and toss to coat. This will prevent the macaroni from sticking. 
  • To the bowl, add cucumber, tomato, olives, feta cheese, dill, parsley, shredded chicken, red onion, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
  • Combine the red wine vinegar and olive oil in a small cup. Pour the mixture over the macaroni salad and toss to combine. 
  • Plate and service with stuffed grapevine leaves and lemon wedges.
