Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Use sun-dried tomatoes preserved in a jar with oil and herbs. These can be found at your grocery store near the shelf-stable olives and pickles.
  • tip 2
    If desired, you can adjust the amount of crushed red pepper flakes in this chicken pasta bake recipe. If you like a little more heat, add an extra pinch or two.
  • tip 3
    Covering the baking dish with foil during the first bake helps the pasta cook and prevents it from drying out.
  • tip 4
    If desired, top each serving of chicken pasta casserole with grated Parmesan for extra cheesy flavor.
  • tip 5
    Serve your chicken pasta bake with Pillsbury™ French Bread and a green salad.
