Steps:
- Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta in the boiling water until al dente according to the package instructions. Drain and transfer to a large bowl.
- Toss the pasta with the Honey-Chipotle Vinaigrette. Season with salt and pepper. Next, add the chicken, cherry tomatoes and banana peppers. Toss it all and transfer to a pasta bowl for serving. Top with fanned-out avocado slices and garnish with the chives.
- Put the vinegar, mayo, honey, chipotle, mustard, Italian seasoning, garlic and some salt and pepper in a blender or food processor. While the machine is running, slowly drizzle in the olive oil until the dressing is combined and emulsified. Adjust the seasoning if necessary, or add more chipotle if you want it more spicy.
CHIPOTLE CHICKEN PASTA SALAD
Smoky chipotle with sweet crunchy corn! As always you can tailor it to your taste. If you can't find chipotle ranch dressing, use just ranch, add extra chipotle sauce or chipotles in adobo with or without the peppers. If you can't find or don't have a spice grinder, use chipotle powder and some garlic salt. Don't like corn,...

Steps:
- 1. Prepare pasta as instructed on box, meanwhile in a large bowl, toss the chicken with half of the chipotle sauce. then add peppers, beans and corn.
- 2. Once pasta is cooked, rinse in cold water to stop the cooking, drain put back in pan and add the ranch dressing, and few twists of grinder spices.
- 3. Add pasta mixture to chicken mixture, stir in remaining chipotle sauce, then chill or not and enjoy!
- 4. Since I feel pasta soaks up sauces when warm, save some to add when serving. Also try adding some shredded cheddar, bacon bits or chopped cilantro it would certainly kick it up a notch!
