Oriental Chicken Pasta Salad image

I first had this pasta salad at a wedding shower and just had to have the recipe! It has become a family favorite and is served at almost every family function! Prep and cook time does not include refrigeration time which should be at least 12 hours.

Time 50m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

5 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
1 lb bow tie pasta, cooked
1/2 lb snow peas, blanched 3 minutes
1 red pepper, chopped
3 green onions, sliced
1 can sliced water chestnut
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons parsley
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon fresh ginger or 1/2 dried ginger
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all salad ingredients and toss with dressing.
  • Refrigerate at least overnight before serving.
  • I also recommend making a second batch of the dressing and tossing it with the salad just before serving as the pasta soaks up most of the dressing.
