Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I preheat my oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large mixing bowl, I combine the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, minced garlic, heavy cream, chicken broth, grated parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. The smell of the garlic as I mix everything together is utterly irresistible! I make sure everything is evenly coated in that creamy goodness. Once blended, I transfer the mixture to my greased baking dish and smooth it out evenly. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
