Recipe Ingredients

1 lb	454g / 16oz	Boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 oz	85g	Butter
1/2 lb	227g / 8oz	Rotini pasta
2 teaspoons	10ml	Salt
2		Water
3 teaspoons	15ml	Salt
2 cups	474ml	Sour cream
3 cups	711ml	Mayonnaise
2 teaspoons	10ml	Dill weed
2 teaspoons	10ml	Black pepper - cracked
1/2 cup	73g / 2.6oz	Parmesan cheese
2		Avocados - ripe

Recipe Instructions

Lightly Saute the chicken breasts until tender. Cut into strips aobut 1/2" wide and 2" long. Bring the water to a boil over High heat and add the salt. Add the pasta and turn the heat to Medium until pasta is tender, not mushy. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.

Mix salt, sour cream, mayonnaise, dill weed, black pepper and parmesan together and allow to set for 15 minutes so that the flavors all blend together. Peel and pit the rip avocados. Slice into half inch strips, lengthwise. Mix the chicken strips, pasta and dressing in a large bowl. Mix should be slightly juicy. Gently stir in the avocados, so they don't break up. Allow the mixture to set overnight so that the pasta absorbs the dressing.

If the mixture is dry the next day, add mayonnaise so that it is slightly wet. Taste for seasonings.

To serve: place chicken pasta mixture in a chilled serving bowl and garnish top with ripe tomato wedges. Sprinle with a small amount of dill weed.
