Chicken Bow Tie Pasta Salad is filled with grilled chicken, bow tie pasta and more. Serve with your favorite dressing for a super delicious lunch or dinner.
This salad is a popular one, always served at baby and bridal showers I have been to. It’s really simple, yet delicious, containing bow tie pasta noodles, grilled seasoned chicken, chopped romaine lettuce and cherry tomatoes.
When I serve this at parties I like to have lots of different dressings on the table, so the guests can choose whichever kind they like! My favorite is ranch dressing or creamy poppy seed. Talk about yum! I also like to have separate bowls of croutons, and shredded parmesan cheese next to it, so they can pile on as much or as little as they want.
Serve this salad with some warm breadsticks, and it’s the perfect meal!

Toppings

Instructions
- Rinse the romaine lettuce in water, then pat dry with paper towels. Chop. Place chopped lettuce in a large serving bowl, cover and place in fridge to chill.
