Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil. Add fusilli pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain the pasta and rinse under cold water.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together extra-virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, and pepperoncini brine or fresh lemon juice. Add minced shallots, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried parsley, kosher salt, and black pepper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cooled pasta, drained chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, mini sweet peppers, fresh baby spinach, sliced pepperoncini, and halved Kalamata olives. Toss gently to combine.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the pasta salad and gently fold until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 to 2 hours before serving.
