Friday Recipe - Pasta Primavera with grilled chicken

This is a recipe that has been in "Recipes to Try" file that I tore out of a Taste of Home magazine. I changed up their recipe by adding chicken and a couple more veggies so here is my version of this recipe:

Pasta Primavera with Grilled Chicken
INGREDIENTS:
2 c uncooked garden trio rotini pasta
1 lb fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2" pieces
3 medium carrots, cut into thin strips
1 small zucchini, cut into small pieces
2 tsp olive oil
2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
1 clove minced garlic
1/2 c grated parmesan
1/2 c heavy whipping cream
1/4 tsp pepper
6-8 Chicken breasts, grilled

Cook pasta according to package directions.

In a large skillet, saute asparagus and carrots in oil until crisp tender. Add in zucchini and cook for another minute or so. Add in tomatoes and garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in cheese, cream and pepper. Drain pasta; toss with veggie mixture. Top with a grilled chicken breast and little bit more parmesan cheese.
