8 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed1 large red pepper, diced1 medium zucchini, diced1 dry pint grape tomatoes, halved2 oz kalamata olives, chopped3 green onions, thinly sliced1 (340 g) box Barilla Gluten Free Elbows1 container (just shy of 2 cups) Litehouse Avocado Dip
Place a large pot over medium high heat and spray with cooking spray.
Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, until done. Remove to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Add red pepper and zucchini along with another sprinkle of pepper and saute until just tender. Transfer to the bowl with the chicken.
Add the tomatoes, olives and green onions.
Add water and a large pinch of salt to the pot used to cook the chicken and vegetables (no need to clean).
Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 7 minutes.
