Recipe: Pasta Salad with Chicken Breast and Oranges

This salad is one I usually prepare for office parties and although it's a bit labor-intensive, it's worth it because it's always a hit.

Ingredients

250 g short pasta
1 chicken breast
1 bag (450 g) Mexican vegetable mix
mayonnaise (from one egg with oil and a little mustard)
1 small yogurt (200 g)
2 oranges
150 g salted roasted peanuts
salt, pepper
3 tablespoons butter

How to prepare pasta salad with chicken breast and oranges

  1. The pasta is boiled with salt; drain.
  2. The chicken breast is boiled with salt and cut into cubes.
  3. The Mexican vegetables are placed in boiling water and boiled for 1 minute
  4. The chicken cubes and vegetables are sautéed together in 3 tablespoons of butter. Season with salt and pepper. Add the vegetables and chicken over the pasta and let cool completely.
  5. While cooling, I made the mayonnaise and cut the orange flesh into cubes.
  6. When the salad has cooled, season again with salt and pepper. Add the mayonnaise mixed with yogurt, oranges, and peanuts over the salad. Mix well until combined. Keep refrigerated.
    *Add the orange cubes and peanuts no more than 1 hour before serving, otherwise they will become soggy.
