Assemble the Dish:  In a large oven-safe skillet spread the uncooked pasta. Pour marinara sauce and chicken broth over the pasta, stirring to combine and nestle the meatballs.

Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 40-45 minutes until the pasta is al dente and the meatballs are cooked through.

Add Cheese: Remove foil, sprinkle mozzarella cheese on top, and bake for another 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve: Garnish the pasta with extra parmesan cheese and fresh basil, if desired. Enjoy!

Optional Meal Prep: Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make the chicken parm meatballs ahead, freeze them, and simply add to cooked pasta.
