This Chicken Alfredo Casserole is the ultimate comfort food. It combines tender chicken, pasta, and a creamy Alfredo sauce, all baked together with melted cheese for a rich, flavorful dish. Perfect for a family dinner or meal prep, this casserole is both satisfying and easy to make.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
  • 12 ounces uncooked pasta (penne, rotini, or rigatoni)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and milk, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens (about 5-7 minutes).
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  7. In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, and Alfredo sauce. Stir until everything is well coated.
  8. Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish. Sprinkle the top with extra mozzarella cheese if desired.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden and melted on top.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

You can add extra vegetables like broccoli or spinach to make it more nutritious. For a crispy top, broil the casserole for the last 2-3 minutes of baking.
