Easy Chicken Alfredo Casserole Recipe

Ingredients

• 3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
• 1 (8 ounce) package penne pasta
• 0.5 (16 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
• 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
• 0.25 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon onion powder
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Place the chicken in a pot and cover it with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear.
3. While the chicken is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the penne pasta and cook, stirring occasionally, for approximately 11 minutes, or until the pasta is al dente. Drain the pasta.
4. Drain the cooked chicken and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
5. In a large bowl, combine the chicken, cooked noodles, Alfredo sauce, half of the mozzarella cheese, milk, onion powder, and garlic powder. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
6. Pour the mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
