Penne Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Penne Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
“The use of precooked chicken and sauce that comes in a jar make this dish fast and easy to assemble.” The sun-dried tomatoes give this cheesy casserole a sophisticated feel; it's great for company. -Robin Klawinski of Eagle, Idaho
