Shredded Thai Chicken Pasta Salad

Tips from the kitchen

• For extra moistness, stir water into the salad, 1 teaspoon at a time.
• Depending on the grocery store, broccoli can be purchased as stalks or crowns. Broccoli crowns are the tops of the broccoli stalks trimmed just under the broccoli head. Broccoli crowns give more florets per pound and create less waste but are often more expensive than broccoli stalks. Always purchase broccoli with bright green color, compact clusters of florets, and firm stems. Avoid broccoli with yellow flowers.
