3/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
3 cups bow tie pasta (I've used Penne & other types too)
2 cups shredded cooked chicken
1 cup smoked cheese, such as Gouda (I've used harvarti & provolone too) cut into 1/4" cubes
1 cup celrey thinnly cut
1/3 cup finely chopped red onion (I don't do onion, so I skip them)
3 tablespoon fresh chopped chives (I only use 1 tablespoon)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Dressing:
1/3 cup fresh Orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon stone-ground mustard
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons rice wine vinegar
Preheat oven to 350*, place walnuts on a cookie sheet and back for 8 - 10 minutes, check frequently, let cool
Cook pasta according to package directions, drain, let cool.
To prepare dressing, combine all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk together to blend.
Add pasta, chicken, cheese, celery, onion, walnuts, chives & parsley and toss gently to combine.
