Chicken Caesar Pasta

Yummy! I have been trying to make dinner every night instead of us just snacking around (bad I know) Well we tried these recipes and oh are they good.

Chicken Caesar Pasta

1 lb dry penne pasta
1 tablespoon butter
6 skinless boneless chicken breast (cut it into cubes)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1(8 ounce) bottle of caesar dressing
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 head romaine lettuce -rinsed dried and shredded
1 large tomato, chopped

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until done. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken, pepper and salt. Cook 10 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Remove skillet from heat. In a bowl, mix together salad dressing, vinegar and cheese. Toss together pasta, chicken, lettuce and dressing mixture. Place in large serving bowl and sprinkle with tomato. Garnish with croutons and Parmesan curls if desired.

TIP- When i make this again I will not use Kens Salad dressing or the red wine vinegar. It made the dressing mixture very strong. Otherwise it was so YUMMY!
