Step 1

Start by warming a bit of olive oil in a sizable pot or pan over medium-high heat. Toss in the chicken pieces seasoned with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder. Allow it to cook for around 5 minutes until the chicken is mostly cooked. Transfer the chicken onto a plate and set it aside for now.

Step 2

In the same pot, cook the minced onion and garlic until they soften and release their flavors. Next, pour in your favorite marinara sauce, followed by water (using the sauce jar for measurement). Stir well and bring this concoction to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer.

Step 3

Return the chicken to the pot and add in the pasta. Mix it well to ensure the pasta and chicken are coated with the sauce. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 10-15 minutes until the pasta is cooked to your liking.

Step 4

After that, mix in the parmesan and part of the mozzarella cheese until they melt into the pasta.

Step 5

For the final touch, sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese over the dish and let it cook for a few more minutes until the cheese is melty and gooey.

Step 6

If desired, add a sprinkle of extra Italian seasoning on top for an added flavor kick. Finish off with a garnish of minced parsley or basil, and your One-Pot recipe is ready to enjoy!

Step 7

Remember, this recipe is flexible, so feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your preference or add in extra ingredients you like. Bon appétit!
