Italian Pasta Salad

Italian Pasta Salad

An incredibly filling and revitalizing pasta salad! prepared with two kinds of cheese, fresh vegetables and herbs, smoked salami, soft pasta, and a zesty homemade Italian dressing.

INGREDIENTS

  1. 16 ounces of dried rotini
  2. 10 ounces of firm salami, sliced 1/4-inch thick, chopped;
  3. 3 cups (16 ounces) grape tomatoes;
  4. 1 can (6 ounces) black olives, halved;
  5. 2 cups chopped bell peppers (yellow and green are my favorites).
  6. half a cup of finely chopped red onion
  7. 8 ounces of fresh mozzarella pearls;
  8. 3 ounces of freshly grated parmesan cheese
  9. half a cup of freshly chopped parsley
  10. 1/3 cup of freshly chopped basil

Dressing

  1. One cup of olive oil
  2. 1/4 cup of newly squeezed lemon juice
  3. One teaspoon of dried oregano
  4. Two teaspoons of dijon mustard
  5. One teaspoon honey
  6. Two teaspoons of finely chopped garlic
  7. red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon, or to according to taste
  8. Black pepper and salt that has just been ground

Guidelines

  • Cook pasta as directed on the package (I cook it in five quarts of water with a tablespoon of salt until it’s just about al dente). After draining the pasta, set aside 1/2 cup of water.
  • Pasta should be transferred right away to an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with a rim, then spread out to cool for 15 minutes.
  • Chop ingredients and make dressing while pasta cooks and cools.
  • Olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, mustard, honey, garlic, and red pepper flakes are combined to make the dressing. Season with a little pinch of salt and then pepper to taste.
  • Pasta should be cooled before being combined with salami, tomatoes, olives, bell peppers, red onion, mozzarella pearls, parmesan, basil, and parsley in an extra-large bowl.
  • Mix the dressing one more, then add it to the bowl of ingredients along with 1/4 cup of pasta water. To coat evenly, toss well. If necessary, thin with additional pasta water and add extra salt to taste.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours (or up to 3 days) for a cooler, crisper pasta salad.

Notes: 

  • If you are unable to acquire pearls of that size, you may use chopped fresh mozzarella in the shape of a log or ball in place of the pearls. Simply chop into little bits.
  • Grate parmesan cheese by cutting it into 1-inch bits and adding them to a food processor. Process until finely ground, about one minute.

Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu

Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu

The Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu recipe made using  Air Fryer turned out perfectly! My kids and wife really enjoyed it! Air-fried to perfection, a chicken breast filled with gammon and Swiss cheese and covered with Panko bread crumbs. Fantastic!

Ingredients For Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe:

  1. Two substantial skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  2. Four pieces of Swiss cheese.
  3. Four slender gammon slices
  4. One beaten egg
  5. One and a half cups flour
  6. Panko Bread Crumbs, 1 cup
  7. Add the salt and pepper.

Instructions For Air Fryer Chicken Cordon Bleu Recipe:

  • Set the Air Fryer’s temperature to 375°F.
  • Cut the chicken breasts lengthwise in half. Thus, you can unfold them like a book to reveal two thin chicken pieces.
  • To thin them out even further, cover the breast with plastic wrap and pound it with a meat mallet.
  • Lay a slice of cheese in the centre of the breast and cover it with the gammon.
  • Utilising a toothpick to secure the roll, hold the chicken in place. To taste, add salt and pepper.
  • Roll up the chicken, dust it with flour, dip it in the egg, and finally roll it in bread crumbs.
  • Cook for 20 minutes in an air fryer set to 375 degrees. To ensure consistent cooking, turn over halfway.

Instructions for Recipe:
To achieve that lovely crispy exterior, make sure the chicken breasts receive a good coating. Before dusting the chicken with flour, you may also coat it in dijon mustard. This should improve the coating’s adhesion and add a hint of extra flavour. I just dipped mine in a side of mustard, though, because my kids detest it. I also used very thin gammon slices, and I believe that turned out nicely. Thus, the knife did not become stuck and pull the gammon out while I was slicing through the chicken. The cooked gammon crumbled easily and added a wonderful flavour and texture.

NOTES, ADVICE, AND SUGGESTIONS:

  • To achieve that lovely crispy outside, cover the chicken breasts thoroughly.
  • Before dusting the chicken with flour, you may also coat it in dijon mustard. This should improve the coating’s adhesion and add a hint of extra flavour. I just dipped mine in a side of mustard, though, because my kids detest it.
  • Cut the ham into very thin pieces. This way the knife won’t catch and yank out the gammon when you cut through the chicken. The cooked gammon crumbled easily and added a wonderful flavour and texture.
  • Keep your Air-Fryer Basket empty. When there is hot air circulating around the food to cook it evenly, air fryers function best. There must be spaces between the chicken for it to do this. Your air fryer’s capacity may need you to cook in batches.
  • To help prevent sticking, mist your Air Fryer Basket with cooking spray.
  • Cook until 165 degrees are reached inside.

Making chicken cordon bleu in the air fryer is surprisingly simple.The ingredients are really basic, and chances are you have them in your kitchen already.
