Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a baking dish, combine 1 jar of alfredo sauce and 1 cup of chicken broth, whisking together.

Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning, and 1 teaspoon of salt to the mixture.

Add 8 ounces of spaghetti to the baking dish, stirring to combine.

Fold in 2 cups of pre-shredded rotisserie chicken into the mixture.

Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle 1 cup of Italian shredded cheese on top.

Return the dish to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Once done baking, let it sit for a few minutes to allow the pasta to absorb the sauce.

Top with a healthy amount of grated parmesan cheese and parsley if desired.
