It’s amazing that you can make such a delicious dinner with so little work, but it’s NOT too good to be true.
Be sure to see the recipe card below for full ingredients & instructions!
Ingredients:

- Rigatoni Pasta
- Marinara Sauce (click for my homemade version or buy your favorite at the store)
- Mozzarella Cheese

Tips!
- If you prefer, you could make this dish with other types of pasta; penne would be great in this dish!
- If you don’t have a large skillet, use a stock pot instead.
- The pasta on the outer layer will be a little bit toastier, but the rest will be perfectly soft and tender.
- To make the top layer of cheese extra melty (yum!) just pop the skillet under the broiler for 3-4 minutes.

Great recipe. Easy, most ingredients or a simple substitute is in most pantry/kitchens. My husband is rather conventional in his tastes. He prefers salt and pepper dishes. He loved this and I will definitely make this again.
That’s great to hear, Paula!
Super simple & super yummy!!! Will definitely make again! I’ll be bringing it to work for my dinner the next couple days – can’t wait!! I used fresh mozzarella sliced thin instead of shredded mozzarella.
Ah! Love fresh mozzarella! I am sure that was a great substitution!
Made this for dinner, it was very easy and very good. I read a lot of the reviews and I think having a high quality sauce makes a big difference in the flavor. I made a few modifications, added Italian seasoning and garlic and of course a little more cheese. I also stirred it rather frequently while cooking because I was not using a non-stick pan and it will stick a bit. But it was a hit with my husband and me so adding it to our recipe file! Thanks!!!
Yum! That sounds delicious! I’m so glad you loved it so much!
I’d be such a hero to our kids if I added this to the menu this week so I think I’m going to have to
I hope they enjoy it!!
Very quick, easy and a hit with the family!! 😄😍👏🏼
Thank you, Nosheen! I’m glad the whole family approved!
Delicious and super easy!!
I made this last night for dinner. It was so easy and so delicous I couldn’t have been happier. My husband loved it as well.
Hubby approved is always the best!! I’m so glad you all loved it so much!
Great recipe! My girlfriend and I loved it, it was very easy and not too long to prepare. The most annoying part was only to cut the chicken, otherwise I didn’t have any other issue!
I’m so glad you loved it so much!!
This is one of my family’s favorite go to meals. Which is a win for me because of how simple & fast it is!
I’m so happy to hear that!!
It was good. A nice quick, easy family meal but I would like more flavor. Next time I’ll use penne pasta, 6TBLs dressing and double the cheeses and maybe add some fresh basil into it, or Italian seasoning to flavor it up some. But a solid family dish.
Those sound like great additions! I can’t wait to hear how it is!
