Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Cook spaghetti in salted boiling water until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
While pasta cooks, season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken until golden and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Let rest, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine cooked spaghetti, sliced chicken, and marinara sauce. Toss well to coat everything evenly.
Step 4
Transfer the mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle mozzarella evenly over the top.
Step 5
Bake until bubbly and cheese is melted and lightly golden, about 20-25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Step 6
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired.
