Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  3. Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes.

  4. Pour the marinara sauce over the chicken and simmer for an additional 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

  5. Meanwhile, cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot.

  6. Add the chicken and marinara sauce to the pot with the cooked pasta, tossing everything together until well combined.

  7. Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

  8. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the pasta.

  9. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

  10. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  11. Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving.
