Cheesy Chicken Alfredo Pasta Bake

penne (or another similar shape)

chicken

butter

all-purpose flour

garlic (minced)

half & half

Italian seasoning

chicken bouillon

mozzarella cheese (divided)

parmesan

Parsley

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Set out a 9X13 inch baking dish.

Set a large pot of salted water over high heat. Once boiling, stir in the penne and cook according to the package instructions. Then drain the pasta, reserving 1 cup of pasta water for later use.

Meanwhile, set a second large sauce pot over medium heat. Add the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour. Then whisk in the minced garlic. Continue to whisk for 1-2 minutes until the roux is golden in color.

Stir in the half &amp; half, Italian seasoning, and bouillon. Once the mixture is hot, stir in 1 cup shredded mozzarella, and 1 cup parmesan cheese. Stir and simmer until the cheese is well incorporated.

The sauce should be thick, but still saucy, not like gravy. If it seems too thick, mix in ½ to 1 cup pasta water. Then mix in the cooked pasta and chicken pieces.

Pour the pasta mix into the baking dish. Spread out evenly. Then sprinkle the remaining 2 cups of mozzarella cheese over the top.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the sides are bubbling and the cheese on top is melted with crispy edges. Serve warm.

You only need 10 minutes of prep and one dish for this easy Dump-and-Bake Chicken Alfredo Pasta Casserole. You don&#39;t even have to boil the pasta!

Dump and Bake Chicken Alfredo Pasta Casserole

rotini pasta

22 oz jar Alfredo sauce (about 1 very large 22-ounce jar

chicken stock

garlic

mozzarella ((or Italian blend cheese))

Parmesan cheese and fresh chopped herbs ((such

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a large baking dish, stir together uncooked pasta, Alfredo sauce, chicken stock, chicken and garlic. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Uncover; give the pasta a good stir. At this point you should check the pasta to make sure that it is al dente (firm but with a tender bite). I have had good luck with the 30-minute cook time; however, some readers have noted that it required about 10 or 15 minutes longer. If it’s still too hard after 30 minutes, just cover the dish and return to the oven until pasta is al dente. Then move on to the next step.

Sprinkle mozzarella over the top. Bake uncovered for 8-10 more minutes (or until cheese is melted and pasta is tender).

Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan or fresh chopped herbs, if desired.
