Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Fill a medium pot with water and bring to a boil over high heat. Salt the water liberally, lower the heat to medium high, and add the pasta. Cook until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside. In a large bowl stir together the yogurt, cottage cheese, spaghetti sauce, egg and egg white, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1/4 cup mozzarella, garlic powder, parsley, and salt. Add the chicken and pasta to the sauce and toss to combine. Pour the pasta mixture into the baking dish and spread evenly. Top evenly with remaining 1/4 cup parmesan and 3/4 cup mozzarella. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the best choice for this recipe, as they cook quickly and evenly. If you're using chicken breasts with skin, be sure to remove it before cooking.
- Slice the chicken breasts thinly. This will help them cook quickly and evenly. You can use a sharp knife or a kitchen shears to slice the chicken breasts.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the flavor of the chicken.
- Use a large baking dish. This will ensure that the chicken breasts have enough room to cook evenly.
- Bake the chicken breasts at a high temperature. This will help them to cook quickly and evenly. The exact temperature and cooking time will depend on the thickness of the chicken breasts.
- Top the chicken breasts with the cheese sauce. This will help to create a creamy, flavorful sauce that will keep the chicken breasts moist.
- Bake the chicken breasts for an additional 10 minutes. This will help to melt the cheese and allow the flavors to meld together.
- Garnish with fresh parsley. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
Conclusion:
This Three-Cheese Chicken Bake is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is tender and juicy, the cheese sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the whole dish is topped with a crispy breadcrumb topping. Serve it with a side of roasted vegetables or a salad for a complete meal.
