Ingredients:

  • 4 cups cooked pasta
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil leaves for garnish optional

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375F 190C

In a large bowl, mix together the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, marinara sauce, half of the mozzarella cheese, half of the Parmesan cheese, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper

Transfer the mixture to a greased casserole dish

In a small bowl, combine the remaining mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs
