Baja Chicken Pasta Salad

Recipe

Title: Baja Chicken Pasta Salad
Categories: Chicken Low-cal Mexican Vegetables Salads
Servings: 6

3/4 lb Chicken Breast; *
6 oz Dried Mixed Fruit; **
1 c Ring Macaroni Or Orzo; Raw
1 c Jicama; Cubed
2 ea Green Onions/Tops; Sliced
1/2 c Mayonnaise Or Salad Dressing
2 tb Sour Cream Or Plain Yogurt
1 ts Red Chiles; Ground
1/4 ts Salt

* The chicken breast should be boneless, skinless and weigh about 3/4
of a pound.
** You should use 1 6-oz package of diced mixed fruit. There should

Heat enough salted water to cover the chicken breast (1/4 tsp salt to 1
cup of water) to boiling in a 4 quart Dutch oven. Add the chicken breast.
Cover and heat to boiling, reduce the heat and simmer until the chicken
is done, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the chicken with a slotted spoon.
Heat the water to boiling and add the fruit and ring macaroni or orzo
gradually so that the water continues to boil. Boil, uncovered, stirring
occasionally, just until the ring macaroni is tender, about 6 to 8 minutes
or 10 minutes for the orzo, then drain. Rinse with cold water and drain
again. Cut the chicken into 1/2-inch pieces and mix with the fruit,
macaroni, jicama and onions. Mix the remaining ingredients and toss with
the chicken mixture. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2
hours.

    2 pounds nectarines (about 5)
    8 ounces fresh raspberries
    3 tablespoons sugar
    2 drops almond extract — optional
    6 ALMOND BISCOTTI — crumbled (see
    recipe)

    Slice nectarines into a large bowl. Add berries. Add sugar and extract, if

    NOTES : You could, of course, leave the biscotti whole and enjoy them
    alongside the fruit. By crumbling them on top of the fruit, you allow the
    crumbs to absorb the delicious fruit juices, insuring that they are not
    left behind in the dish.
