Chicken Parm Casserole

 Original recipe found here

1 pound pasta (rigatoni, ziti, penne)

32 oz. marinara sauce (or more if you're REAL saucy)

3 cups Mozzarella cheese (freshly grated)

1/3 cup parmesan cheese

6 breaded chicken breasts, frozen (store bought or make your own)

1) Prepare pasta to al dente. Drain, put back in pot, and stir in half of sauce and 1 cup of Mozzarella cheese.

2) Cook frozen breaded chicken breasts in air fryer at 400° for 8 minutes, flip chicken over, then cook for another 6-8 minutes. Let the chicken cool enough to touch, then cut into bite size pieces.

3) Spray 9x13 inch pan, and add pasta mixture to it. Place chicken over the pasta, and spread remaining sauce over top of the chicken. Sprinkle on remaining Mozzarella and the Parmesan cheese.

4) Bake at 375° for 25 minutes.
