Italian Chicken Recipe

This Italian Chicken Recipe is a true piece of heart-warming, comfort food perfection. It is very, simple to make, and a great assemble-and-sit kind of recipe. It is a cheap recipe and a great way to feed the fam when it’s cold out!

Speaking of cold out, have you seen my post on snow day ideas? One of the best ideas on the list is cooking together! This is the perfect recipe for that. Italian chicken is super easy, so the kids can help, too!

Ingredients

• 2 chicken breasts, cut into cubes
• 1 jar tomato sauce (homemade or store bought)
• 2 Cups of Pasta (rotini or penne work well)
• 2 Cups of shredded Italian cheese (I like the 6 cheese Italian blend!)

Instructions for Italian Chicken

1. Pre-heat your oven to 400
2. Pre-boil the pasta in water until just barely done
3. Then, add the cooked pasta and cubed chicken into the bottom of a 9×13 glass baking dish.
4. Dump about 2/3 of sauce onto the pasta & chicken and mix until it’s all covered.
5. Add 1 Cup of the cheese and mix well
6. After that, use the rest of the sauce to ensure the top and edges are well-covered
7. Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through
8. Then add the remaining 1 cup of cheese to the top of the mix, and put back in the oven for about 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted
9. Serve and enjoy!
