Grilled Vegetable Pasta
Nothing beats grilled vegetables so today we're going to do a simple and fresh hearty grilled vegetable and chicken pasta.
​
Ingredients in order of appearance: -
-
Whatever vegetables, I used: -
-
2 courgettes​
-
3 bell peppers
-
onions
-
spring onions
-
garlic
-
-
2 chicken breasts roughly chopped ( optional )​
-
1 onion sliced
-
2-3 cloves of garlic finely chopped
-
Pasta
​

Grab whatever vegetables you want really.

Chop them all up, stick them in a deep oven tray, season, add lots of olive oil and mix together. Preheat the oven to around 200 C and cook for 25 minutes or until the vegetables start to brown on top.
​

I like to give them a stir and cook for another 15 minutes so they get an all over tan.

While the vegetables are browning, if you're using chicken now is the time to fry it.
​
You should fry in batches to avoid crowding the pan. Fry it on high to seal in the flavour.
​
Leave the fried chicken on the side and we'll come back to it.
​

Now throw on that pasta, I used fettuccine because it looks nice with this dish.
​
Undercook it by a couple of minutes, drain and leave to the side.
​
OK, so now we're going to start combining stuff as the vegetables should be almost ready, the chicken is ready and the pasta has just come off.
​
Sautee the sliced onions, add the finely chopped garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes.

Now, throw in the grilled vegetables and the chicken if using.

Throw the pasta in as well and combine everything. Throw in more olive oil, can't hurt :)
​
This is why we undercooked the pasta as it will cook a little while its sitting and we'll cook it a little more when we're combining everything.

That's it, yep this one was a lot of juggling so sit and enjoy your creation.
