Orange Pasta Salad image

This is one of our all time favorite summer meals and a full recipe will usually last us two meals. It keeps very well in the refrigerator and DH says sometimes that it tastes better the next day. I have never served this to anyone who didn't love it. Taken from Woman's Day Low-Fat Meals June 1995

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 ounces medium pasta shells, cooked and drained
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked, cooled and cut into 1-inch cubes
1 1/4 cups green seedless grapes, halved
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded and cut into chunks
6 green onions, sliced
3 navel oranges, peeled and sectioned
3/4 cup thawed frozen orange juice concentrate
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 leaf lettuce (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. In large bowl, combine pasta, chicken, grapes, cucumber, green onions and half the orange sections.
  • 2. In small bowl, whisk together orange juice concentrate, oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. Pour over pasta mixture and toss gently to combine.
  • 3. Arrange lettuce on large platter. Mound pasta salad on top and garnish with remaining orange sections.
  • Note: I omit step 3 and prefer this salad quite cold so it goes into my fridge for at least an hour before serving. Served simply with fresh crusty rolls and butter.
