Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Thinly slice the onions and place them in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil, then season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Toss well to ensure the onions are evenly coated.
Nestle the chicken breasts and the head of garlic (with the top sliced off to expose the cloves) into the seasoned onions. Rub some of the onion seasoning onto the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the onions are beautifully caramelized.
Remove the baking dish from the oven. Using a knife or two forks, shred the chicken directly in the dish. Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and mash them in. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley.
Add the pre-cooked fusilli pasta and shredded mozzarella cheese to the dish. Toss everything together until well combined and the cheese starts to melt into the hot ingredients.
Serve warm, garnished with freshly grated parmesan cheese and a little more parsley if desired.
Cook it hands-free.
