A delightful twist on the classic Caesar salad, this pasta bake combines creamy textures with a crispy topping for a comforting meal.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, Caesar dressing, chopped green onion, and diced red bell pepper.
Ensure the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing for consistent flavor.
Transfer the mixture into a greased casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Grease the dish to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Sprinkle the croutons and grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Press the topping lightly to help it adhere to the pasta.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the casserole is heated through and the topping is golden brown.
Check the casserole halfway through to ensure even browning.
Serve warm and enjoy your creamy chicken Caesar pasta bake.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color and freshness.
