How to Make Canadian Bacon And Chicken Pasta Bake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cook 1 pound of pasta according to package directions. Drain well and set aside. Do not add fat or salt.
- In a large skillet sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, sauté 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1-inch cubes), 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), and 1 green bell pepper (chopped) for 10-15 minutes, or until chicken is cooked through.
- Add 2 medium zucchini (chopped), 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 2 tablespoons tomato paste, and ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes.
- Cover and simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until zucchini is tender.
- In a prepared 9x13 inch baking dish, layer half of the cooked pasta, 15 ounces ricotta cheese, 8 ounces Canadian bacon (sliced), and the chicken sauce.
- Repeat layers with remaining pasta, ricotta, and Canadian bacon.
- Sprinkle generously with 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese and ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly and the dish is heated through.
