Creamy Chicken Pasta Bake Recipes

HOW TO MAKE CREAMY CHICKEN BAKE RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place the chicken breasts on a lightly greased with non-stick cooking spray 9x13 inches baking pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• In a bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, mushrooms, water, onion powder, and chives. Then, spoon this mixture over chicken breasts in baking pan and sprinkle with paprika.
• Bake in the preheated oven for one hour or until chicken breasts are ready and cream mixture is lightly browned. Check the readiness of chicken breasts with a cooking thermometer (the safe internal temperature for cooked chicken is 165°F). Enjoy with your favorite side dish.

CHICKEN PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• Heat 2 tbsp of the oil in a pan over a medium heat and fry the onion gently for 10-12 mins. Add the garlic and chilli flakes and cook for 1 min. Tip in the tomatoes and sugar and season to taste. Simmer uncovered for 20 mins or until thickened, then stir through the mascarpone.
• Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a non-stick frying pan. Season the chicken and fry for 5-7 mins or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Cook the penne following pack instructions. Drain and toss with the remaining oil. Tip the pasta into a medium sized ovenproof dish. Stir in the chicken and pour over the sauce. Top with the cheddar, mozzarella and parsley. Bake for 20 mins or until golden brown and bubbling.

PASTA BRAVO: CREAMY CHICKEN PASTA BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Saute chopped onions, peppers and garlic in olive oil, about 5 minutes over medium heat. Add mushrooms and continue to saute until mushrooms begin to soften, about 4 minutes more.
• While the veggies are cooking, put pasta in a large pot of boiling water and cook until al dente. (still firm to the bite) WARNING: They will continue to cook and absorb the sauce in the oven, so do not overcook here. The package directions should give instructions for al dente cooking times, but for my penne, it's usually about 9 minutes. When they are finished, drain well and return to pan. Mix in ricotta and mozzerella cheeses.
• When the veggies are softened, add the pasta sauce and stir well. Add the chicken and black olives.
• Hopefully you really used a Large Pot for your pasta, because I find it easiest to mix everything in there before assembling. Add pasta/chicken mix to pasta/cheese mix and stir gently until well blended.
• Pour all into shallow backing dish (a 9x13 will work, I use a similar sized oval baking dish). By keeping it shallow, you'll be sure to get a nice crust.
• Sprinkle bread crumbs over top, followed by parmesan. I like to spray a little cooking spray on it to help give nice browning. (You could pour a little melted butter, but the Pam does the trick and saves calories to enjoy for the pasta!).
• Place in preheated oven and bake, uncovered for 20-25 minutes, until bubbling and browned on top.
• Let it sit a few minutes before serving (to allow the cheeses to firm a little and because it is TOO HOT to eat just out of the oven.
• Enjoy!
