Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until it’s al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cooked spaghetti, and Alfredo sauce. Toss everything together until the sauce evenly coats the chicken and pasta. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the mixture into the greased baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese over the top, creating a gooey and delightful cheesy layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the cheese turns golden and bubbly.
Once done, remove the dish from the oven and garnish with more Parmesan cheese and freshly chopped parsley for that extra burst of flavor.
Serve this Chicken Spaghetti Alfredo Bake with a side of garlic bread or a simple garden salad for a complete meal.

Notes

You can make this dish even more exciting by adding some sautéed mushrooms, diced bell peppers, or even some cooked spinach to the Alfredo sauce. If you like a bit of heat, a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes over the top before baking will do the trick. While using store-bought Alfredo sauce is convenient, making your own from scratch can elevate the flavor of your dish. Try combining heavy cream, butter, garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese in a saucepan over low heat until smooth and creamy. Enjoy!

Chef’s tip: To give your bake some texture contrast, add a crunchy topping before baking. Mix breadcrumbs with a little melted butter and sprinkle it over the cheese layer. This will create a crispy, golden crust that everyone will love.
