Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley optional
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 15-ounce jars of Alfredo sauce
  • 2-1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 pound uncooked penne pasta
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups diced cooked chicken breast
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons minced garlic

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 13x9-inch baking dish and combine the uncooked penne, Alfredo sauce, chicken broth, cooked chicken, garlic, salt, and pepper directly in the dish, mixing thoroughly to ensure even distribution. Cover with foil and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the pasta is tender. Adjust oven setting to broil. Remove the cover and evenly distribute the Parmesan and mozzarella over the surface. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes at a distance of 3 inches from the heat source, until the cheese develops a golden-brown finish. Garnish with parsley if desired.
