Easy Chicken Alfredo Bake

While the pasta is cooking, start making the alfredo sauce. Over medium heat, add the butter and garlic to a large pot. Sauté them for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly and then stir in the flour and sauté it for an additional 1 minute.

I love to use fresh garlic, but here we tried it out using the squeeze bottle garlic to make it easier on you. It tasted just as good this way.

Slowly add your chicken broth and whisk it to combine them together. Make sure to continue to whisk until it’s smooth, it usually takes about 2 minutes.

Whisk in milk and bring mixture to a low simmer, let cook until thickened. Make sure to stir occasionally.

Once thickened, add the grated parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and salt & pepper. Mix well until all the cheese is melted and incorporated.

In the pot with the drained pasta, add the alfredo sauce and chicken. Mix it together well.

Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking oil spray and pour in half the pasta. Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese then add the other half of the pasta mixture. Top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.

Bake for 20-25 minutes. Remove your chicken alfredo penne pasta from the oven and serve it immediately.

My children and friends love to sprinkle their pasta with additional grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Of course it’s totally optional.
