- 100 g Parmesan finely grated
- 1 teaspoon Oregano
- 3 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 30 g Pine Nuts
- 400 g Short Cut Pasta

Dressing
- 3 tablespoon Lemon Juice
- 2 tablespoon White Wine Vinegar
- 2 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 2 cloves Garlic crushed

Instructions
- Heat the oven to 220°C/430°F. In a bowl mix together the crushed garlic, half the grated parmesan, oregano and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken breasts and mix well to coat in the marinade. Put the chicken breasts on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20-30 minutes depending on the size of the chicken breasts.
- While the chicken cooks bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta according to packet instructions. When ready run under cold water and tip into a large bowl.
- Whisk together all of the dressing ingredients and set aside. Heat a small nonstick frying pan over a low heat. Add the pine nuts and toast, flipping regularly, until golden. Add to the bowl with the pasta.
- When the chicken is cooked chop into bitesized pieces and add to the bowl with the pasta along with the rest of the parmesan, basil and artichokes. Drizzle over most of the dressing and toss well. Taste and add more dressing if needed. Serve sprinkled with chilli flakes if desired.
