DUMP AND BAKE CHICKEN ALFREDO PASTA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
• In a large baking dish, stir together uncooked pasta, Alfredo sauce, chicken stock, chicken and garlic. Cover tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
• Uncover; give the pasta a good stir. At this point you should check the pasta to make sure that it is al dente (firm but with a tender bite). I have had good luck with the 30-minute cook time; however, some readers have noted that it required about 10 or 15 minutes longer. If it's still too hard after 30 minutes, just cover the dish and return to the oven until pasta is al dente. Then move on to the next step.
• Sprinkle mozzarella over the top. Bake uncovered for 8-10 more minutes (or until cheese is melted and pasta is tender).
• Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan or fresh chopped herbs, if desired.

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Spray a 9 x 13-pan with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
• Bring a large pot of water to a full rolling boil.
• Cook the pasta in the water for 2 minutes less than cooking time on package (the pasta will finish cooking in the casserole).
• Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, combine both containers of Alfredo sauce with the milk; heat until the mixture begins to bubble.
• When pasta is almost cooked, drain well and add it to sauce along with the chicken and half of the Parmesan cheese.
• Pour into the prepared dish and top with the remaining Parmesan cheese.
• Cover the dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
• Uncover the casserole and bake for 15 to 20 minutes longer or until the casserole is bubbly and cheese melts and begins to brown. You can vary this dish in many ways: add 1 cup sliced frozen carrots, thawed, 2 cups frozen baby peas, thawed, 1 (10-ounce) package frozen asparagus, thawed, 2 cups frozen green beans, thawed. Or top the casserole with 1/3 cup bread crumbs mixed with 3 tablespoons melted butter; add that after the casserole is uncovered.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Butter an 11-by-14-inch or other 4-quart baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
• Put the chicken in a dutch oven or other large pot, then add the chicken broth, crushed garlic, lemon zest, rosemary sprigs and bay leaves. Partially cover and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cook, partially covered, until the chicken is tender, 20 to 22 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve (you should have 2 cups liquid; if necessary, add a little water to make 2 cups). When the chicken is cool enough to handle, tear or shred into small pieces. Wipe the dutch oven clean.
• Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling water and cook until just al dente, adding the broccoli during the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain the pasta and broccoli in a colander and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking. Let drain in the colander while you make the sauce.
• Melt the butter in the Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped garlic and cook until sizzling, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir to make a paste; cook until the flour is no longer raw, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the reserved 2 cups cooking liquid and the heavy cream; season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Return to a simmer, whisking to make a smooth sauce. Cook over low heat until thickened, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in 1 cup Parmesan, the parsley and lemon juice. Add the chicken, pasta and broccoli and stir to coat. Transfer to the baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan and the mozzarella. Bake until the top is golden and the edges are bubbly, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
