Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 (8 ounce) package penne pasta
½ (16 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce
1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Place chicken into a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat and simmer until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 15 minutes.
At the same time, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
Drain cooked chicken and cut into bite-size pieces.

Cook’s Note
You can use any medium pasta noodles that you prefer, such as ziti, large elbow, etc.
If using the second half of a jar of Alfredo sauce, swirl the milk in the jar to get all of it out.
