One-Skillet Cheesy Ground Chicken Pasta Recipe

Cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Add minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

Add the ground chicken to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in the marinara sauce, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Let it simmer for 5 minutes.

Add the cooked penne pasta to the skillet and mix well to combine with the chicken and sauce.

Reduce the heat to low and sprinkle the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the pasta. Cover the skillet and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
