Ingredients

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 2 cups marinara sauce (sugar-free)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Toppings

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Other

  • Olive oil for greasing

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking the casserole.
  2. Prepare the Chicken Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded or diced cooked chicken with sugar-free marinara sauce, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir thoroughly to blend all the flavors.
  3. Assemble the Casserole: Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil. Transfer the chicken mixture into the baking dish and spread evenly.
  4. Add Cheese Toppings: Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the chicken mixture, then top with the grated Parmesan cheese for a rich, cheesy crust.
  5. Bake the Casserole: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, golden, and bubbly.
  6. Cool and Serve: Once baked, let the casserole cool slightly for a few minutes to set before slicing and serving.
