Ingredients

  • 300 g (10 oz) pasta (penne, rigatoni, or fusilli)

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, diced

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 cup broccoli florets

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1 cup zucchini, sliced

  • 1 bell pepper, diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cook pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add broccoli, zucchini, and bell pepper; cook until just tender.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked pasta, sautéed vegetables, diced chicken, cherry tomatoes, heavy cream, half the mozzarella, and Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer mixture into a greased baking dish. Top with remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until cheese is melted and golden.
  • Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Use leftover or rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • Substitute cream with a lighter option like Greek yogurt for a healthier version.
  • Add red pepper flakes for a subtle kick.
