Zesty Chicken and Pasta

This one's from Kraft, so its quick and easy, yet surprisingly flavorful. We make it almost once a week and even Logan will eat it.

Ingredients:

1 pkg. (8 oz.) fusilli pasta (or any pasta)
1/2 cup House Italian Dressing, divided
1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cups broccoli florets
1 large red pepper, chopped
1 small onion, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup grated Parmesan Cheese

COOK pasta as directed on package.

MEANWHILE, heat 1/4 cup of the dressing in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 5 min. or until cooked through, stirring occasionally. Add vegetables and parsley; cook 5 min. or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.

DRAIN pasta; mix with chicken mixture and remaining 1/4 cup dressing. Sprinkle with cheese and serve.
