PREP: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 400˚ F. Bring a large pot of water to boil. Lightly grease a 2.5-quart casserole dish with cooking spray. Pour 2 tablespoons of RAGÚ Simply sauce in the bottom of the dish and spread with a spoon. While the water is boiling, cook the chicken.

CHICKEN: Add the oil to a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. When hot, add two pieces of chicken at a time and cook each batch for 6-9 minutes, flipping halfway until the chicken is cooked through. Remove to a wire rack, repeat with remaining chicken adding more oil to the pan if needed. Allow the chicken to cool before cutting into small strips or bite-size pieces.

PASTA: Salt the water when boiling and cook pasta 2 minutes less than package directions. Drain, don’t rinse it, and add it back to the same pot. Toss with remaining sauce until thoroughly combined.

ASSEMBLE AND BAKE: Add half of the pasta to the dish, half of the chicken and half of the mozzarella. Followed by remaining pasta, chicken and mozzarella. Microwave butter in a bowl until it melts. Add the panko, parmesan and garlic powder and combine until the panko absorbs the butter. Sprinkle on top of the casserole. Cover the dish and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the cover and continue to bake for another 10 minutes until golden on top. Garnish with chopped, fresh parsley and serve!
