Farfalle salad with zucchini & chicken

250 g farfalle (bowtie pasta)


4 medium zucchini, about 400 g
1 sprig fresh rosemary
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
175 g rocket

175 g cherry tomatoes, cut in half


3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 sprigs each of fresh thyme and flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
400 g skinless chicken breast fillets, sliced into thin, even strips
1 tablespoon lemon juice

1. Cook pasta in plenty of lightly salted boiling water until al dente, following packet

5. Heat oil in a nonstick pan over high heat and saut the chicken until golden brown, about 8
minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
6. Distribute pasta salad among serving bowls. Top with chicken and herbs and drizzle with
