Baking Instructions:
Bake at 400°F until the chicken is fully cooked, and the sauce is bubbly and golden, which should take around 30-40 minutes.
For an extra cheesy touch, add more cheese on top and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
Finish it off by garnishing it with parsley.
Serve this delicious dish over white rice or mashed potatoes!
