I love the flavor of Caesar dressing and this recipe fits the bill! I marinate the chicken in the Caesar dressing for a bit first and cook the chicken longer initially.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 boneless chicken breast halves
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can chicken broth
1 cup water
1 cup uncooked orzo pasta
1 (1 lb) bag frozen mixed vegetables (broccoli green beans pearl onions and red peppers)
3 tablespoons caesar salad dressing
1/8 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Cook chicken in oil about 10 minutes, turning once, until brown.
3. Remove chicken from skillet; keep warm.
4. Add broth and water to skillet; heat to boiling.
5. Stir in pasta, heat to boiling.
6. Cook uncovered 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender.
7. Stir in frozen vegetables and dressing.
8. Add chicken.
9. Sprinkle with pepper.
10. Heat to boiling; reduce heat.
11. Simmer uncovered about 5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender and juice of chicken is no longer pink.
