1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2

Put the chicken in a pot and cover it with water. Bring to a boil over high heat; lower the heat and simmer until the centers are no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes.
3

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet slightly firm, about 11 minutes. Drain.
4

Drain the cooked chicken and cut it into bite-size pieces.
5

Combine the chicken, noodles, Alfredo sauce, 1/2 of the mozzarella cheese, milk, onion powder, and garlic powder in a large bowl and mix well.
6

Pour the mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish. Layer the remaining mozzarella cheese and the Cheddar cheese on top.
7

Bake in the preheated oven until melted and bubbly, about 25 minutes.
