BAKED CHICKEN BROCCOLI ALFREDO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Coat a 9 x 13 baking pan or casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and cook penne until al dente, adding the broccoli to the water during the last 30 seconds of cooking. Drain and set aside.

Add in the minced garlic during the last two minutes of cooking. Remove chicken and garlic from pan and set aside.
• In the same pan, reduce heat to medium and add in the butter. When melted, whisk in the flour until stir until flour is cooked through and golden brown, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk and increase heat to medium high, whisking until milk starts to simmer. Shut off heat and stir in ¾ cup of both the mozzarella and parmesan cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Toss the chicken and pasta and broccoli with the Alfredo sauce. Pour the mixture into the greased pan and top with remaining cheeses. Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes or until bubbly. (Broil for a minute if you want a golden crust on top.) Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
