Cooking Steps

Start prep
1
  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
  • Meanwhile, halve zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4 inch-half moons.
  • Halve peppers lengthwise, then remove stems. Cut peppers into 1/2-inch half moons.
  • To an unlined baking sheet, add zucchini, peppers, half the Italian Herb Spice Blend and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil. Toss to coat.
Roast veggies and cook pasta
2
  • Roast veggies in the bottom of the oven for 10-12 min, stirring halfway, until tender-crisp and golden.
  • To the boiling water, add cavatappi. Cook uncovered for 8-9 min, stirring occasionally, until tender.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water. Drain cavatappi, then rinse under cold water until cool and return to the same pot.
Sear chicken
3
  • Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • While pan heats, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with remaining Italian Herb Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • When pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't crowd the pan; cook chicken in 2 batches if needed.) Cook for 1-2 min per side, until golden.
Roast chicken and finish prep
4
  • Transfer chicken to an unlined baking sheet. Spread 1/2 tbsp pesto over each breast. Roast in the middle of the oven for 7-9 min, until cooked through.** 
  • While chicken cooks, drain olives, then tear or cut in half.
  • Tear or cut bocconcini into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Remove basil leaves from stems.
Assemble pasta salad

  • To the pot of cavatappi, add olives, roasted veggies and remaining pesto. Stir to coat.
