Method

Dice the chicken breast into small pieces.
Chop the romaine lettuce, fresh parsley, dice the cucumber, and thinly slice the red onion.
Grate the garlic cloves. In a bowl, whisk together the plain yogurt, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and grated Parmesan until you have a creamy and smooth sauce. Taste and adjust with more yogurt or mayonnaise if you prefer a more intense flavor.
Cook the pasta in boiling salted water according to package directions until al dente.
Drain the pasta and let it rest until completely steam-dried.
Preheat the oven to 200 °C with fan assist. Spread the pasta on a baking sheet, toss with olive oil, and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
Heat a pan with butter, add the chicken cubes, paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper to taste, and cook until golden and done.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, lettuce, cucumber, red onion, and parsley. Pour the creamy dressing over and mix gently.
Scatter the crispy baked pasta over the top and sprinkle with more grated Parmesan. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness and creaminess.
