Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Combine the bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil in a small bowl until evenly moistened; set aside.
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the penne, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
- Meanwhile, combine the chicken in a bowl with the Italian cheese blend, spinach, tomatoes, alfredo sauce, pesto sauce, and milk. Stir in the pasta once done, and scoop into the prepared baking dish. Top with the bread crumb mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and golden brown on top, 40 to 45 minutes.

CHICKEN PENNE PASTA CASSEROLE
This is a really tasty and easy to throw together casserole. It has a really great Italian flavor. The red onion gives things a little bit of a sweet flavor and mixes well with the ingredients. I was a little concerned about the amount of fresh mozzarella, but 1 1/2 pounds covers the dish perfectly making it good and gooey.

Steps:
- 1. Take a large pot and fill over halfway with water and add salt to cook your penne in. Let it start heating up while you prep all the other ingredients.
- 2. Preheat the oven to 350. Take a large casserole dish and coat it with olive oil and or pam inside. Make sure there are no places that are not oiled and set aside.
- 3. Take the 2 large chicken breasts and cube them into bite size pieces and add to a bowl once done. Wash your hands thoroughly after cutting the chicken up. Using a different cutting board dice up your red onion.
- 4. Take your can of black olives and drain well. Cut them into halves and put them into a separate small bowl for later usage.
- 5. Using a wok or a large sautee pan add the olive oil to the pan and allow to heat up. Once ready add the chicken breasts, onions, minced garlic, herbs and seasonings. Stir this mixture till the chicken is fully cooked.
- 6. Once the chicken is fully cooked add the jar of tomato sauce, the undrained diced tomatoes and bring this mixture up to a light boil. Drop it down to a slow simmer till the pasta is done.
- 7. While the sauce is simmering add your penne to the boiling and salted water. Cook following the directions on the package.
- 8. Once the pasta is cooked drain it very well. Cut the heat off on the sauce and add the pasta to the pan then add the black olives. Stir very well making sure everything is coated and mixed together nicely.
- 9. Slowly add this mixture to your casserole dish making sure to get everything out of your pan. Top with the sliced fresh mozzarella cheese and place into the oven.
- 10. Bake till the cheese is melted and a nice golden brown approximately about 30 minutes, but check it after about 20 mins. Once cheese is melted and golden brown remove from the oven. Hope you all enjoy this dish as much as we did.
CHICKEN AND PENNE CASSEROLE
I have made this recipe using bone-on chicken pieces also, although you might have to adjust the cooking time slightly. I double the crushed tomatoes to two cans when I make this, but that is optional, my family loves this casserole!
