PMS OVEN BAKED CHICKEN W/ MARINARA & PASTA
The title is not what you may think. I didn't have enough space to add all of the veggies in the title, so I shortened it & used the initials,for Peppers,Mushrooms & Spinach.This all in one meal isn't hard but a bit time consuming but well worth your efforts. It is a cross between Chicken Parmesan & something in between. I created it out of my desire to add green veggies with the pasta, in one way or another. The results were a healthier version of chicken by baking instead of frying, & then adding a lot of sauteed veggies with two types of cheeses. My husband devoured every bite.Hope you like

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling during the cooking process.
- Choose the Right Pasta: For this recipe, you can use any type of pasta you like. However, some pastas, such as penne or rotini, hold the sauce better than others.
- Cook the Pasta Al Dente: When cooking the pasta, be sure to cook it al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent the pasta from becoming mushy when it is combined with the sauce.
- Make Sure the Chicken is Cooked Through: To ensure that the chicken is cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) before it is safe to eat.
- Let the Sauce Simmer: When making the marinara sauce, let it simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Season to Taste: Be sure to taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more garlic, oregano, or basil to suit your taste.
- Serve Immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is cooked. The pasta will start to absorb the sauce and become soggy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
This oven-baked chicken with marinara pasta is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, the sauce is rich and flavorful, and the pasta is cooked to perfection. This dish is sure to become a favorite in your household.
