Chicken Parmesan Pasta Skillet is perfect comfort food that’s ready in 30 minutes. With just a few ingredients, this dish is loaded with juicy chicken, tender pasta, tomato sauce, and lots of Parmesan cheese!
If you love chicken parmesan, but hate all of the prep-work (and dishes that go along with it), then this oh-so easy chicken parmesan skillet was made for you.
It contains the flavors of the classic dish, but is ready in just 30 minutes (and with only two pots to wash). And that means this delicious dinner is perfect for the whole family, especially on busy weeknights.
This cheesy chicken dish can be made ahead of time, makes tasty leftovers, and is freezer-friendly. And if you have picky kiddos (or husbands), I guarantee they’ll love this chicken parm pasta.
Unlike classic chicken parmesan, the chicken isn’t breaded, which saves on time and ingredients. But that doesn’t mean we’re skimping on flavor! The chicken breasts are seasoned with a savory blend of spices and then cooked until golden brown. And if you’re really missing that breaded texture, you could always toss the chicken with some panko (or regular breadcrumbs) to give it that texture.
And did I mention this chicken parmesan pasta recipe is ready in just 30 minutes? The chicken cooks in one pan, while the pasta cooks until al dente in a pot. Then, toss the cooked chicken with your favorite marinara sauce, noodles, shredded Parmesan cheese, and mozzarella cheese.
