One-Pan Chicken Alfredo Bake

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 2 cups uncooked penne pasta
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, combine the pasta, diced chicken, cream, broth, garlic, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Cover tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  4. Stir in the Parmesan and half the mozzarella, then sprinkle the remaining mozzarella on top.
  5. Bake uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes more, until the pasta is tender, the cheese is browned, and the chicken reaches 165°F.
  6. Rest for 5 minutes and garnish with parsley, if desired.

Notes

Feel free to add veggies like broccoli or spinach for an extra nutritional boost. You can use any type of short pasta if you don't have penne on hand.
