Cheesy Chicken Penne

1. 1

   Fill a large pot with water and cook penne according to directions on box.

2. 2

   Meanwhile, chop the thawed chicken into bite-size strips. Set aside.

3. 3

   When the penne is done, drain and set aside; heat the pot with the olive oil and let the oil get really hot.

4. 4

   Add just under 1 TBSP of fresh minced garlic and add basil and onion. Stir around a bit and add the chicken. Sprinkle with salt and then sprinkle a lot of garlic salt. Add a little ground black pepper.

5. 5

   Stir fry until chicken is no longer pink, around 5 minutes; do not overcook, as the chicken will get tough!

6. 6

   Spoon the chicken into the bottom of a casserole dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray; glass looks really pretty. Spread penne evenly over that.

7. 7

   Pour marinara sauce over all and sprinkle mozzarella cheese over that. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over everything, it should just be a thin layer.

8. 8

   Bake at 300u00b0F until cheese melts, about 9-15 minutes.
