This is super yummy and easy to make. If you want to make it easier, pick up and debone a rotisserie chicken. I only rated it a 4 because it needs more colour. If it wasn’t for the tomatoes it would be very monotone in colour. I like starting off with sautéing onions, adding in green, yellow and red peppers. Mushrooms can also be added. Use what veggies you have on hand or like. I’ve also used corkscrew pasta as well. It is very tasty the next day served cold as well. It’s not a recipe you need to measure either. Make as little or as much as you need.
Made this for dinner tonight because I need to go grocery shopping, but I had all of the ingredients on hand for this. I didn’t expect it to be anything special, but we all loved it! I used Olive Garden Italian dressing, and topped it with shredded Parmesan. Delicious as a family meal, and would also make a great side dish to bring to gatherings! It was very easy to make.
Tried this at work (grocery store) and was pleasantly surprised!! 🙂
Great recipe. I added feta cheese and broccoli.
Love this very much. Didn’t quite have enough chicken breasts, but 3 worked fine. And I added a green bell pepper. Thank you for great recipe!
Excellent! My grandparents live with us so our family totals to 8 people and I made way to much. It make an excellent leftover though. I had for 2 other lunches
Very good meal
This was pretty good for a quick, easy dinner. Next time I will marinate the chicken in some Italian dressing before I cook it.
I didn’t have fresh chicken or tomatoes, so used canned: 2 cans chicken, 1/2 box pasta, eye-balled the Italian dressing, 2/3 can diced tomatoes (Italian), 1 small can sliced black olives, 2/3 small can mushrooms. I should have added parmesan too, but forgot. I’d love to try this again with rotisserie chicken, fresh tomatoes, black olives and parmesan. I’d skip the mushrooms, only because my 2 year old avoided them. Thank you for the quick and easy recipe!
I had some leftover rottiserie chicken and farfalle pasta and found this recipe. I added salt and pepper to taste and added parmessan pepper on top. It was good, simple, and extremely fast.
Not a bad meal on a hot day when you don’t want don’t want to slave over a hot stove on a summer day.
Great recipe to start with and later make it your own. I add the shredded swiss cheese on top, a spoon full of minced garlic from the jar, and when I’m pressed for time, the chopped up grilled chicken that comes already prepared for salads. Fresh chicken that you cook youself if always better but if you need something quick this works too. I have also added a thin layer of lettuce and some black olives to spruce it up when I take the dish to get-togethers, but just plain is how I like it the best!
Thank you for the recipe? most of my pasta salads are made up from whatever I have on hand, I don’t even remember half of them. Usually I season then add olive oil, a touch of sugar, and vinegar I like to keep it simple. But for some reason I have not used Italian salad dressing. Not to mention I usually have a bottle in the fridge because I like to use it as a marinade on wild meat.
Delicious! Used grilled chicken that had been marinated overnight in Italian dressing. Had to sub farfalle with spaghetti noodles.
really good and so easy to make. I just bought premade italian dressing (cheesy garlic) and added fresh sauteed mushrooms, a half of a jar of roasted red pepppers, canned tomatos and extra grated parmesan cheese. I think it is best served slightly warm to room temperature. Made it several times and got great reviews from all who ate it
I thought this was ok the first time but the second time making it I changed a couple things and it turned out much better. I added 1 c fresh parm, used 1 14oz can of diced flavored tomatoes and made a packet of dry italian seasoning instead of putting in a whole bottle (cheaper that way). A pretty good fast/basic recipe though. My kids liked it, so thats always good 🙂

A little bland, not much taste
I love this recipe. However, I use the Sundried tomatoes (in a jar). I also add mushrooms and broccoli. Whenever I make it all of the kids come home.
This dish is very easy & inexpensive to make. Good for large parties also. I bought fresh chicken beast (boneless), cooked and shredded it. It blended right in with the pasta. The farfalle pasta is best suited for this dish. I also added Olives and salad shrimps…perfect!!! My TIP: SHRED the chicken. If you cube it, it separate from the pasta. I would make this again.
This was absolutely delicious! The Italian dressing really gives it a wonderful taste!
