Yummy Roasted veg and pasta salad

I made this for lunch for us during the week and have to say it was delish, really enjoyed it, but may be not one you could make in a hurry, although I managed to have it ready for when my hubby got home for lunch

Roasted vegetable and marinated chicken pasta

 Ingredients.
300g of chicken breast cut in to small chunks
300g of cooked pasta
1 to 2 teaspoons of sweet chili sauce
chop in to chunks:
half a red,green,yellow pepper (capsicum)
1 onion
4 to 5 mushrooms
half an Aubergine
1 courgette (zucchini)
1 red onion
Bag of mixed salad leaves
handful of basil chopped roughly
a couple of baby tomatoes
chopped red onion
you can add any other veg IE like Carrot, cucumber etc if you like

For the marinade:
1 tsp of Chinese 5 spice
2tblsp of balsamic vinegar
2tblsp of soy sauce
2tblsp of sweet chili sauce
1 to 2 cloves of garlic crushed
half a teaspoon of chopped finely fresh ginger
seasoning: salt and pepper
Step 1:
Combine marinade ingredients in to a non metallic bowl and pour over chopped chicken cover and set a side to marinate. for at least 30 minutes, you can do this as you cook the pasta and prepare vegetables for roasting

Step 2
cut and prepare vegetables, place chopped vegetables in to a oven dish  spay with some low cal spray oil and season with a little salt and add in a clove or two of garlic if you like. cook in oven at 200 degrees for half an hour to 40 minutes . sorry the pic is a little blurry! at about the half way mark I took the veg out and turned them over and put a little sweet chili sauce on them and put them back in the over the oven to cook

Before and after cooking:

Step 3,
while the vegetables are cooking, time to boil the pasta (so get that on) and cook the chicken, so heat a non stick pan and spray with low cal spray ( spray on a cold pan) take the chicken out a cook on a medium heat medium heat pan don't let it get to hot and burn keep turning on till fully cooked, remove from pan and leave to one side, what I done now was drain my pasta and put in to the frying pan and poured the rest of marinade left in bowl over them, I gently heated the pasta again and coated the mixture all over the pasta, mainly because I hate waste and I heated it in the pan because I have the uncooked chicken in it. well worth it as it was yummy

Last step is putting it all together, so mixed it up in a large bowl with salad leaves etc gave it a good toss and checked if it needed any more dressing, it didn't for me but you can adjust depending on you taste buds, served it out and was very tasty the chicken was so tender and yummy

My 3 year old loved it, here she is diving in and robbing all the feta cheese :)

working out the PP
I worked it out at 6 to 7 PP serving 4 adults we added 30g of feta so add on the extra PP if you do add any thing else to it. you could opt not to use the marinade if you liked or add more pasta if for a dinner instead of lunch. you will have to forgive me if I have the PP a little off, my first recipe out of my head down on paper so to speak. feel free to correct me if you like. enjoy to any one who tries it :)
