Easy Oven Baked Chicken
What makes Easy Oven Baked Chicken Pasta tastes AMAZING? Of course it’s a warm buttery white sauce and lots of parmesan cheese.
One of the ways you can go an extra step and make this delicious Oven Baked Chicken Pasta Recipe taste EXTRA DELICIOUS is by upgrading from regular butter to premium butter like Plugrá®, it can be found at your local Kroger Family of Brands Store.
- Plugrá® is extra creamy because it’s slow churned with real milk from American dairy farms. Always fresh, crafted without artificial ingredients and added hormones.
- It’s all in the details. Regular butter is 80% butterfat and higher in moisture, while Plugrá® is 82% butterfat and lower in moisture. The result is flakier pie crusts, softer cookies, and more flavorful sauces.
- Created by chefs who know that delicious dishes start with exceptional ingredients.
- Plugrá® is made for optimal performance in baking, cooking, and spreading.
Make this scrumptious Oven Baked Chicken Breast and Pasta for dinner tonight using this premium butter and see the difference it makes in the flavor. You will love the rich buttery taste!

This was excellent!! Whole family loved it!!!
Thank you, Darce!
Do you think I can add fresh spinach?
I think that sounds like a great idea 🙂
This is delicious, adding it as a new favorite. I followed the recipe exactly with one exception, I dipped the chicken in melted butter right before coating so the crumbs with stick better. Chicken was juicy and the sauce is amazing. Even my picky husband loved it. Thank you for sharing this recipe.
You are welcome Susan! I am so happy you and your picky husband enjoyed it! Thank you for your awesome recipe review! It means a lot to me!
Hi. Planning to make this as a white pasta for my son’s graduation party. Is there a specific white wine that works best? We tend to drink sweet white wines, like Moscato, and I doubt it would work. What kind do you recommend?
We recommend dry white wine like corduroy white wine 🙂 Congratulation to your son!
Can I make it ahead?
Hi Ivana! You totally can, although I think it tastes extra amazing when it is just made.
This was extremely delicious!! Chicken was so tender and juicy and I just loved the creamy buttery sauce too. Such good flavor. Easy to make. Husband loved it too. It’s definitely a keeper. Followed recipe exactly but with only two chicken breasts. And I have leftover noodles for lunch 👍 Yum 😋
Thank you Julie, so happy you liked it!
