Confetti Chicken Salad
Ingredients:
1 rotisserie chicken (cooked, and meat picked off the bone)
½ cup mayonnaise
½ cup sour cream
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 red, green, yellow and orange pepper, diced small
½ medium red onion, diced small
1 pound pasta (bow-tie), cooked al dente
Directions:
Place chicken pieces in a large mixing bowl and add peppers and onion. Cook pasta as directed on package and drain. Pour drained warm pasta over the chicken mixture and set aside. In small mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, Italian seasoning and olive oil. Pour over pasta mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate at least 4 hours. Salad can be served alone or on a bed of crisp greens.
Servings: 6
Cook time: 15 minutes
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Notes from Paula’s Test Kitchen: We also tested this salad recipe by omitting the mayonnaise and sour cream and replacing it with ¼ cup apple cider vinegar. It was a fantastic and lighter option. Both versions are a wonderful spring and summer meal.

I’m interested in a Couscous Recipe…the large white couscous…..w/ fruit, veggies, and dressing. Anyone out there have one they would share

Made this for Memorial Day. The dressing was not enough and had little taste so I made another double batch, added a little salt and small cheese cubes.Made one HUGE bowl and it fed over 25 people.

Tassie, you can highlight the part that you want to print and then go up to the top of your page to FILE. Under FILE click the Print button. It should bring up a print page. There will be a section down toward the bottom left side that will let you click to either print ALL, PAGES or SELECTION. Check the SELECTION part and then OK. It will only print out the part that you have highlighted. I just did this with this recipe and I have no ads or anything on my page. The type is small but still easily readable.
I can’t wait to try this recipe.

this sounds delicious & easy to make. I am with the others who commented about how to copy these recipes that do not have a link to them. I seem to have the hardest time trying to highlight & copy (then paste in my email on my computer) thank you for your help :D

this recipe looks like the chicken salad that i buy at jewel-osco except minus the noodles. does anyone know of a good chicken salad recipe that is similar to this one?

Tassie, Paula Deen recipes from our articles are printer-friendly in the recipes section on this website. They are usually linked in the article text. For non-Paula recipes, we are working on a new system but do not have a launch date as of yet. So for right now, yes, the best way is to copy and paste into a word processing program.

I may be missing it but is there a “printer friendly” way to print out your recipes? I usually have to copy and paste it to word.

i love quick and easy pasta salad for the summer, especially here in texas its way too hot to cook all day over a hot stove, so my family and i enjoy all kinds of different pasta salads, some i have made from wonderful recipes i see online and some just pop in my head and i run with them.
paula ty for all the different varieties of dishes you show and prepare daily i love them all
keep up the great work and god bless you.

I will use this recipe, but because of the salt in the rotisserie chicken, I’m going to use my own cooked chicken! Sounds so appetizing! Thanks Paula

Susan Lott is a great party planner! She has tons of great ideas that she needs to share with the online world. I have been begging her to start a Facebook page or Etsy account. The graduation gift that she made me was hand drawn with my name and different definitions for each letter. She framed it and I cherish it.....I also would have paid about $50 for it in a store. Thanks for sharing her idea but this idea is nothing compared to some of her other quick and money saving tips! You should hire her for your creative team!
Love you Susu!
