I got this recipe from Southern Living and my family really likes it. It doesn't take alot of time and involves grilling. So it is great for this time of year!
Makes 4 servings and takes about 30 minutes
Ingredients:
4 small zucchini, cut in half long ways
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 Tbsp freshly ground Italian herb seasoning
1 (19oz) frozen cheese filled tortellini (I use the refrigerated kind by the cheeses at Publix)
1 (7oz) container refridgerated reduced fat pesto
2 large tomatoes, seeded and chopped
Garnish with parmesan cheese
1. Preheat grill to 300to 350 (medium). Sprinkle zucchini and chicken with seasoning.
2. Grill zucchini and chicken at the same time, covered with grill lid. Grill zucchini 6-8 minutes on each side until tender. Grill chicken until done. Remove from grill and let stand 10 minutes.
3. Prepare tortellini according to package directions.
4. Coarsely chop chicken and zucchini. Toss tortellini with pesto, tomatoes, chicken and zucchini.
We always have a big salad and italian bread on the side. I hope everyone enjoys it!
