Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cook the elbow macaroni according to package directions for al dente pasta, and drain.

In a large bowl, mix shredded cooked chicken with 2 tablespoons of dry ranch seasoning.

In a large oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the flour, whisking constantly for about 1 minute, until the mixture turns light brown.

Slowly pour in the warmed whole milk, whisking constantly. Continue cooking and whisking until the sauce thickens.

Add the salt, garlic powder, and remaining 1 tablespoon of dry ranch seasoning into the sauce. Stir well and remove from heat.

Add the shredded white cheddar and mozzarella cheese to the sauce, stirring until fully melted.

Fold in the cooked elbow macaroni and ranch-seasoned chicken into the cheese sauce, making sure everything is evenly coated.

Bake the pasta bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and golden.

Garnish the baked dish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
