- Heat a grill pan or possibly a grill over high heat. Place the remaining Tbsp. of extra virgin olive oil on a plate. Remove the chicken from the refrigerator, dredge each chicken breast in the oil, coating both sides, and season with salt and pepper.
- Once the grill is warm, grill the chicken till cooked through and the juices run clear, about 3 min a side.
- While the chicken is grilling, add in the fusilli to the water and cook till just tender, about 10 min. Drain and toss the pasta with half of the relish, keeping it hot till you are ready to serve.
- Divide the pasta among 4 plates, placing a grilled chicken breast on top. Spoon equal amounts of the remaining relish over each breast.
