These cold noodle dishes are lighter and healthier than traditional Western-style pasta salads and are perfect for a light lunch on a hot summer\u2019s day.<\/p>\n<p>This one is filled with the bright flavors of ginger, garlic and fresh herbs. It adds cucumbers and sweet peppers for a juicy crunch and refreshment. You\u2019ll want to make it over and over again.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Asian Pasta Salad<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Lime juice: <\/b>Almost every marinade includes an acidic ingredient, and lime juice fills that role here. It also brings a bright, citrusy flavor to the finished salad. <b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Olive oil: <\/b>Most marinades also include oil, because some flavors are fat-soluble and need oil to really come alive (others are water-soluble, and infuse into the lime juice). Olive oil serves that purpose, and it&#8217;s also good for you.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sesame oil and soy sauce:<\/b> Sesame oil and soy sauce are both flavoring ingredients, in this marinade and dressing. Together with the aromatic ingredients, they give the salad its Asian character.<\/li>\n<li><b>Fresh ginger<\/b><b> and garlic: <\/b>Ginger and garlic are fundamental flavors all across Southeast Asia. They&#8217;re bright, bold and pungent, and help bring the salad to life. <b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Sugar:<\/b> Sugar plays a supporting role in the marinade, enhancing the other flavors and balancing the acidity of the lime juice.<\/li>\n<li><b>Chicken:<\/b> Boneless chicken breasts provide high-quality lean protein as the main ingredient. Chicken\u2019s low-key flavor also makes it a perfect canvas for the recipe\u2019s bold, Asian-themed flavors.<\/li>\n<li><b>Angel hair pasta:<\/b> Western-style pasta salads tend to favor bite-sized pieces, like macaroni, but Asian salads are typically built around long noodles like these.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sweet peppers: <\/b>The yellow and red peppers and green cucumber add visual interest to the salad. They also bring fresh flavors and a juicy crunch.<\/li>\n<li><b>Cucumber:<\/b> The yellow and red peppers and green cucumber add visual interest to the salad. They also bring fresh flavors and a juicy crunch.<\/li>\n<li><b>Parsley: <\/b>Parsley has a low-key flavor, but it enhances the taste of everything around it. Its vivid green also brings some visual appeal to the salad. <b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/li>\n<li><b>Green onions:<\/b> Green onions help brighten the salad visually, and also pack a mild but assertive onion flavor.<\/li>\n<li><b>Red pepper flakes:<\/b> The hot pepper flakes provide a measured amount of chili heat, to complement the flavors of the chicken, the salad ingredients and the marinade\/dressing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Prepare the marinade and dressing<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2055041\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Asian-Pasta-Salad_TOHD24_143282_KristinaVanni_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"chicken in the marinade with reserved dressing on the side.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the oils, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, ginger and sugar. Pour 1\/4\u00a0 cup of the marinade into a shallow dish, reserving the remainder as the salad dressing. Add the chicken breasts to the dish, and turn them so that they\u2019re evenly coated with the marinade. Refrigerate the chicken in its marinade for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 2: Grill the chicken<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2055042\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Asian-Pasta-Salad_TOHD24_143282_KristinaVanni_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"grilled marinated chicken.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Drain the chicken and discard the used marinade. Oil your preheated grill, then grill the breasts over medium heat, covered, for five to seven minutes per side or until their internal temperature reaches 165\u00b0F.<\/p>\n<h3>Step 3: Assemble the salad<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2055043\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Asian-Pasta-Salad_TOHD24_143282_KristinaVanni_3.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"assembling the salad in a large bowl.\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>While the chicken grills, boil the pasta according to the directions on the package (cooking time varies between brands). Drain the noodles, and rinse them thoroughly with cold water. Add the vegetables, parsley and red pepper flakes to the reserved marinade. Slice the cooked chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Add the chicken and noodles to the bowl containing the dressing. Toss the salad until the pasta and chicken are evenly coated, then cover the bowl and refrigerate it until mealtime.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2055044\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Asian-Pasta-Salad_TOHD24_143282_KristinaVanni_4.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Asian Pasta Salad served in a bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Asian Pasta Salad Variations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Go meatless:<\/b> The grilled chicken brings flavor and protein to the salad, but it can stand its own without the meat. Prepare the noodles, vegetables and marinade\/dressing as directed in the recipe, and serve the salad. You can add extra vegetables like shredded carrot or daikon and garnish the salad with additional parsley and green onions, chopped cilantro, or crushed peanuts.<\/li>\n<li><b>Swap out the noodles:<\/b> Angel hair pasta is an easily available option, but it isn\u2019t especially Asian. The same dressing works equally well with soba noodles (for a heartier salad) or rice vermicelli (for a lighter one that\u2019s also gluten-free); and any Asian market should also stock slender wheat-based noodles you can use in place of the angel hair.<\/li>\n<li><b>Try alternative proteins:<\/b> The marinade in our Asian pasta salad recipe works well with chicken, but it\u2019s just as good with pork or beef. Seafood is also a slam-dunk option with this salad, from shrimp to basa (Asian catfish). For vegetarians, tofu absorbs the marinade beautifully and also takes on a pleasant hint of smoke from the grill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Can I make this Asian pasta salad recipe ahead of time?<\/h2>\n<p>You can make the salad a day ahead of time without any issues. The chicken won\u2019t be quite as good as when it\u2019s freshly grilled, but it will still be tasty. An alternative is to prepare the rest of the salad the night before, and grill the chicken immediately before serving.<\/p>\n<h2>How long will the Asian pasta salad keep?<\/h2>\n<p>The completed salad will stay food-safe in your refrigerator for up to 4 days, as long as it\u2019s refrigerated promptly and isn\u2019t left at room temperature for more than an hour or two. Unfortunately &#8220;food safe&#8221; isn&#8217;t the same as &#8220;enjoyable.&#8221; The cucumbers and peppers only last a day or two, so in practical terms that&#8217;s your limit.<\/p>\n<h2>Asian Pasta Salad Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2055045\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Asian-Pasta-Salad_TOHD24_143282_KristinaVanni_5.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Asian Pasta Salad served in a bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Kristina V\u00e4nni for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>I want to eat this every day! What\u2019s my best prep plan?<\/h3>\n<p>If you love the salad and would like to have it as your daily lunch, start by cooking and dressing a full batch of the noodles. Keep them in your fridge in an airtight container and pull out a portion for each day\u2019s lunch. Add your choice of fresh vegetables, herbs and a few pieces of chicken or other protein (we&#8217;ve suggested meat variations above). The dressed noodles will last up to five days in your fridge, and this strategy gives you a chance to change up the salad for every meal.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I turn this salad into finger food?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely. Have you ever had the rice paper rolls (aka \u201csummer rolls\u201d) at a Vietnamese restaurant? You can make them with this salad. Buy a package of Vietnamese rice paper rounds (b\u00e1nh tr\u00e1ng), and then follow the wrapping instructions in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/rice-paper-rolls\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/recipes\/rice-paper-rolls\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">our recipe for rice paper rolls<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Does the chicken need to be grilled?<\/h3>\n<p>Grilling adds a smoky flair to the chicken\u2019s flavor, but use whichever cooking method works for you. You can bake or broil the chicken breasts instead. Just slice and saute them and the salad will still taste great.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For your next get-together, try this Asian pasta salad instead of the traditional kind.
