For the Bake

  • 2 cups cooked pasta Use your favorite pasta shape for added texture.

Instructions
 

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Gather your ingredients and cooking tools.
  • In a large skillet, drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook your pasta according to package instructions until al dente, around 8-10 minutes. Drain well.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm cooked pasta, 1 cup of broccoli florets, and the sautéed chicken. Pour in 1 cup of Alfredo sauce and stir until evenly coated.
  • Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil. Pour the pasta mixture into the dish and sprinkle 1 cup of Parmesan cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until bubbling and golden brown.

Notes

Feel free to add your favorite veggies or swap chicken for shrimp or tofu. Ensure pasta is cooked al dente and season well for better flavor.
