Chicken Pasta Primavera (Carb Lovers Diet)

1/2 cup uncooked whole-grain rotini
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup cooked skinless, boneless chicken breast, sliced into 1/2-inch strips
1 onion, vertically sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups chopped tomato
1 zucchini, sliced lengthwise into ribbons
2 tablespoons trated Parmesan cheese

1. Cook pasta according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain
2. Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add chicken; cook 5 minutes.
3. Add onion, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and tomato to pan; cook 8-10 minutes
4. Combine chicken mixture, pasta, and zucchini ribbons; toss gently. Top with Parmesan cheese.

*Ashley's changes: I used minced onion, of course. I didn't have the garlic. I cooked the zucchini with it and cut them into chunks rather than ribbons. I really like this and so does Riley.
