5. Transfer to a Baking Dish
Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish and pour the chicken spaghetti mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly. Top the casserole with shredded cheddar cheese, which will melt into a bubbly, golden layer as it bakes.
In a small bowl, mix panko bread crumbs with a tablespoon of melted butter. This will create a crisp, crunchy topping that adds texture to the casserole. Sprinkle the buttered panko over the shredded cheddar.
6. Bake the Casserole
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until it’s bubbly and the top is golden brown. The cheese should be perfectly melted, and the bread crumbs should be crispy.
7. Serve and Garnish
Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving to ensure the flavors are set. For an added burst of heat, sprinkle crushed red pepper flakes over the top before serving. You can also garnish with fresh parsley or sliced green onions for a fresh contrast to the rich, cheesy sauce.
