Ingredients

    8 ounces rotini pasta (such as Barilla Plus)
    1 small red onion, thinly sliced
    3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano
    1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
    3 tablespoons white balsamic vinegar
    2 cups cooked, shredded chicken breast
    1 can (15.5 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
    1/4 cup chopped green olives

Directions

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook pasta according to package directions, about 11 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup pasta water. Return pasta to pot.

3. Stir broth and vinegar into skillet. Stir in chicken, beans and olives; cook for 2 minutes or until heated through. Toss with pasta and serve, adding reserved pasta water if too dry.

    Very Good
    Satisfying dish however the long strands of cooked onion, from slicing, were unappealing. Suggest you half or quarter it before slicing. - 3/24/17
