Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mince garlic cloves and shallot. Add to olive oil in saute pan on medium heat for five minutes. Add chopped chicken and cook fully. Boil pasta for five minutes, (pasta should be fairly firm). In sauce pan add milk, evaporated milk, heavy cream and butter. Bring to a simmer add 1 pkg of mozzeralla cheese, and pkg of Italian cheese stirring constantly. Add chicken and garlic mixture. In extra large casserole dish add chicken and sauce mixture, along with drained pasta. Bake in the oven for forty five minutes or until casserole is slightly brown and bubbling. Add second package of mozzarella cheese and bake for ten minutes or until golden brown crust forms on top of casserole.

 

Notes: Liquid should cover mixture, make sure you leave at least an inch of space at the top of the baking dish. Serve with your favorite veggie on the side, along with bread. My kids love this dish, it reminds them of my baked mac and cheese, with chicken.
