Chicken Parm Pasta Bake (Serves 4)

A rich and comforting pasta dish featuring crispy chicken tenders in a fresh tomato sauce, tossed with perfectly cooked pasta and topped with melty cheese for a hearty, family-friendly dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 6 Janes chicken tenders, cooked and diced
  • 3 cups cooked bow tie pasta (about 1½ cups dry)
  • 1½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter (to grease the skillet)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Cook chicken tenders in the air fryer or oven until golden and crispy. Let cool slightly, then dice.
  3. Warm marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
  4. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  5. Remove from oven, top evenly with diced chicken and goat cheese. Return to oven for an additional 5–7 minutes, or until the edges are crisp and the cheese is melty.
  6. Meanwhile, whisk together the mayo, sriracha, and water until smooth to create a Garlic Sriracha Mayo.
  7. Remove flatbreads from the oven, top with fresh arugula and a generous drizzle of olive oil, Garlic Sriracha Mayo, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Slice and serve warm.
