You can quickly pressure cook chicken for meals like this, or to save time, buy a pre-cooked Rotisserie chicken and pull off and shred chicken.

- Cover casserole dish with foil and bake for 30-40 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
- Remove aluminum foil from the dish and discard.
- Top chicken alfredo casserole with cheese and return to the preheated oven for 5-8 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately with a great side dish like this corn salad recipe.
Expert Baked Alfredo Pasta Tips
- Store leftovers in an airtight container. If the dish is dry on reheat, add a little extra creamy sauce, heavy cream, or milk before heating.
- Serve with a dusting of Parmesan Cheese and top with fresh parsley for color.
