This one-dish recipe for Chicken Parmesan Casserole gives you all the flavor of chicken Parmesan but without the work. Tender chicken?  Yes.  Melty cheese?  Yes.  Crunchy breadcrumbs?  Yes!  With this baked chicken Parmesan recipe, everything, including the uncooked chicken and pasta, goes right into one dish. The sauce is the key ingredient- the pasta and chicken cook in the sauce, saving time and prep and adding tons of flavor.  We used Prego Creamy Tomato Ricotta Cheese Sauce, but Spicy Vodka Sauce will work, too. It's comfort food that is so quick and easy you can make it anytime.
