Italian Baked Chicken and Pastina
Recipe courtesy of Giada De Laurentiis
Total: 55 min
Prep: 15 min
Cook: 40 min
Yield: 4 servings
Level: Easy
Ingredients
1 cup pastina pasta (or any small pasta)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup cubed chicken breast (1-inch cubes)
1/2 cup diced onion (about 1/2 a small onion)
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes with juice
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon butter, plus more for buttering the baking dish
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until just tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Drain pasta into a large mixing bowl.
Meanwhile, put the olive oil in a medium saute pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 3 minutes. Add the onions and garlic, stirring to combine, and cook until the onions are soft and the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes more. Put the chicken mixture into the bowl with the cooked pasta. Add the canned tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Place the mixture in a buttered 8 by 8 by 2-inch baking dish. In a small bowl mix together the bread crumbs and the Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle over the top of the pasta mixture. Dot the top with small bits of butter. Bake until the top is golden brown, about 30 minutes.

It just like making goulash!!!!!!
Yum I’ve been on a Italian food binge and I think this would be very good
I had to add a lot more seasoning- very bland recipe.
Didn't know she had kids
she has beautiful eye's
Chicken chunks too big. Better if smaller
Made the adult version of this by adding more chicken, 3x the garlic, more herbs including oregano and basil, as well as some crushed red pepper flakes. Make sure to salt your water well, and use extra salt if you have cooked a lot of pasta to avoid blandness.
I love watching her cook, but I can’t stand her switching between English and that Italian accent.
“Now we add the MOZZarELLLLLaaaa”. 😂🤦🏻♂️
add more seasoning this is a very bland recipe
I miss this show! I used to watch it everyday after school.
Sorry but this dish is as Italian as butter chicken 😂
Pasta, chicken, garlic in the same dish…. And canned tomatos directy on the dish?! This is not an Italian recipe… It's a disgusting mess.
Yum!!!!
Beautiful lady and marvelous cook. 👍
Love her hair!
Looks good. But why do you leave so much stuff behind? You didn't put all the onion to the pan, but left pieces on the cutting board. Then you left a lot of the fried onion to the pan. I don't like wasting. That fact alone doesn't convince me about someone being a good cook.
Next time please dish it out on to a plate so we can see what it looks like.
This broad is stupid
this looks like it tastes so bland :/
As much as I love Giada a lot of her recipes are bland and kinda disgusting like the random canned tomatoes in this dish. I like to take her recipes as a base and then make them my own way.
No chicken in pasta sauce….not in Italy ever
Pastiina is vey very small pasta shape like little stars… elbow macaroni is not pastina or anything else that is that size.
This is not an ITALIAN RECIPE. IF YOU DO THIS "Pastina and chicken" IN ITALY SOMEBODY WILL KILL YOU.
Looked so dry. Needed more chicken, sauce, herbs, and pepper
😎
Wow you Hollywood pplz sure have a way of throwing stuff together
This fake italian dish really sucks
I like watching giada cook and she is a really good chef. 🤩🤩🤩
Me gustan mucho todas tus recetas pero me gustaría en español.
Love her cooking yummy
Those chicken chunks are enormous! And she’s making this for children? I hope they don’t choke.
Love watching and listening to you but you seriously need a bench scraper.
Muy rico, lo malo es q no se ingles 😢 pero si entiendo q nomas le puso😆😆 gracias por compartir 💕💕💕
Unattractive face With A Huge Weird Bobblehead
This looks terrible… can you imagine that coming out on a plate from a restaurant? I’d send it right back.
"oooo lets get ALL of those onions"… proceeds to scrape out 3 pieces and leaves the rest
Fancy mac n' cheese with chicken..
So you used the wooden spoon to stir the raw chicken, then used it to stir up the pasta dish at the end. Yuck!
PASTAAAAAAAAAA
4:00 4:18
I died on the inside when she didn’t scrape all the onion and garlic out of the pan

That's not much Chicken? Make the Chicken pieces smaller for kids so it's not a choking hazard…

Listen Golden Brown By Brubeck: Invited to with me here
"Pastina just means little pasta" – then proceeds to use large pasta ahahahaha – that is not pastina. Pastina is around the size of rice.
