- Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top, covering the entire dish with a generous layer of cheese.
- Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting the quantities to taste before placing the dish in the oven.
- Bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 25 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly with golden brown edges.
- Allow the casserole to cool for a few minutes before serving to ensure the flavors settle and it is easier to slice.
