When the penne is done, drain well. Rinse in cold water, then drain again.
Add the penne, chicken, carrots, grapes, and green onions to the dressing. Toss until evenly combined.
To serve, arrange greens on salad plates or shallow bowls. Top with mounds of the chicken salad and garnish with pepper, Parmesan cheese, and bunches of grapes.
