Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Add chicken breasts and coat well. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking Spaghetti

  1. 2

    Cook the Spaghetti

    In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water and 1 tsp of salt to a boil. Add spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Making Marinara Sauce

  1. 3

    Prepare the Marinara Sauce

    In a large saucepan, heat 2 tbs of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. Stir in crushed tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Let simmer for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Grilling Chicken

  1. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and juices run clear. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 5

    Assemble the Grilled Chicken Parmigiano

    In a baking dish, spread a layer of marinara sauce on the bottom. Add cooked spaghetti on top, then layer with remaining marinara sauce. Place grilled chicken breasts on top. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan and shredded mozzarella cheese.

Baking

  1. 6

    Bake the Dish

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the assembled dish for about 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving.
