A delightful and easy-to-make Italian-inspired pasta dish that combines layers of cheesy goodness with a rich tomato sauce.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Undercook the pasta slightly as it will continue to cook in the oven.
In a medium saucepan, heat the spaghetti sauce with the cooked chicken until warmed through.
Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the pan.
In a 2-quart casserole dish, spread a layer of the sauce mixture on the bottom. Add half of the cooked pasta, followed by half of the mozzarella cheese. Repeat the layers with the remaining pasta, sauce, and mozzarella. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
Ensure the layers are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Bake the casserole uncovered in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until bubbly and golden on top.
Let the casserole rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the layers to set.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil if desired.
Pair with a side salad or garlic bread for a complete meal.
