Chicken Bruschetta Pasta Salad

The incredible flavors of homemade bruschetta and flavorful grilled chicken shine in this pasta salad. It's perfect for warmer weather!

Unlike traditional, creamy pasta salads this one is much different!

It's light, super flavorful and dare I say one of my new favorites? I can't pinpoint which part is the best. The homemade bruschetta? The marinated chicken? The tang and sweetness from the balsamic reduction?

All are needed to make this perfect side dish.

I have two other "chicken bruschetta" recipes on my blog. Clearly I love the flavor combination. Many of you have loved this pizza version with the addition of alfredo sauce. And this "skinny" oven baked version is always popular too!

What can I say?

I seem to adore tomatoes, garlic, basil, chicken, sweet balsamic and the like.

The fresh bruschetta comes together in a snap and sits in the fridge to let those flavors combine while you tend to the chicken.

I cooked my chicken in the air fryer for ease + I love how it gets a bit crispy on the edges, not to mention clean up is a breeze. If you don't have an air fryer cooking directly in a skillet or on the grill works too.

You will be temped to sneak bites of that chicken - it's amazing!

This pasta salad is PERFECT for guests. They'll adore it!

It would be also fantastic for graduations, wedding or baby showers or potlucks during the warmer months. It can be made ahead of time and trust me when I say the longer it sits in the fridge the better it gets.

Get ready for some bold flavors and make this dish soon!
