How to Make Baked Parmesan/Mozzerella Chicken & Pasta

Step-by-Step

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Boil pasta for 10 minutes, then drain. Dice chicken breasts and cook thoroughly in vegetable oil. Drain.
Add tomato sauce, then add cooked pasta and mix until the pasta is coated with sauce.
Pour half of the pasta into a greased 11 x 7 inch or 9 x 13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle evenly with 1 cup mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of parmesan, 1/8 cup of basil. Layer the remaining half of the pasta evenly on top. Sprinkle evenly with the remaining cheese and basil.
Bake for 20 minutes, remove and sprinkle immediately with additional parmesan cheese and fresh basil. Serve warm and enjoy!
