Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x9-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper, cooking for an additional 2 minutes.

Combine cooked penne pasta, shredded chicken, cooked onions and garlic, and marinara sauce in a large bowl, and mix well. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese over the top.

Bake, uncovered, for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped basil before serving.
