Step 1

Cook the pasta as directed on the package, drain, mix with olive oil and let cool, mixing every 5 minutes. (The oil and mixing helps prevent it from sticking together while it cools.)

Step 2

Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt and pepper to taste, and grill (or pan fry), over medium-high heat until cooked through, about 3-5 minutes per side, before setting aside to cool, and slicing into bite sized pieces.

Step 3

Mix the pasta, chicken, tomatoes, red onion, basil, and mozzarella.

Step 4

Toss the salad and the dressing and enjoy!
