Begin by boiling water in a large pot. Add the whole grain pasta and cook according to package instructions until it’s al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Then add the halved cherry tomatoes and cook until they start to soften.

Mix in the baby spinach and cook until it wilts down, about 1-2 minutes.

Stir in the diced grilled chicken, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine all the flavors.

Add the cooked pasta to the frying pan, tossing everything together until well mixed.

If desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and serve immediately.
