Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
-
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Add the cooked spaghetti to the bowl and toss everything together until the spaghetti is well coated with the sauce mixture.
-
Transfer the spaghetti mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
-
Drizzle a little olive oil over the top of the spaghetti to prevent it from drying out during baking.
-
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
-
After 25 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges are slightly crispy.
-
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
-
Garnish with additional fresh basil and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve hot.
