Directions:
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in the flour and cook for another minute, whisking constantly.

Make it Creamy: Gradually pour in milk and heavy cream, whisking until smooth. Add onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Simmer until the sauce thickens.

Add Cheese: Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup mozzarella, ½ cup cheddar, and Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.

Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, and blanched broccoli. Pour the cheese sauce over and mix well.

Assemble the Bake: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese and breadcrumbs for a crispy topping.

Bake to Perfection: Bake for 20-25 minutes until bubbly and golden brown on top.

Serve & Enjoy: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your cheesy, creamy pasta bake!
