Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti Recipe
Tender chicken and cooked spaghetti coated in a slightly spicy, cheesy sauce. An easy, comforting casserole the entire family will love!
Ingredients
- 8 oz spaghetti noodles dry
- 3 Tbsp salted butter
- 1 onion diced
- ½ red bell pepper diced (or green pepper)
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 cup low sodium chicken broth
- ¾ cup half & half cream
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 10 oz can Rotel tomatoes and green chilies
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese divided
Instructions
- Chop the onion and red pepper. Mince the garlic. Preheat your oven to 375°.
- Cook spaghetti noodles in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain.
- While pasta is cooking, melt the butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and red pepper; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add garlic, flour, and Italian seasoning. Cook and stir for another 1-2 minutes.
- Stir in the chicken broth, cream salt, and pepper; cook and stir until thick and bubbly.
- Add the Rotel, salt, pepper, parmesan cheese, shredded chicken, cooked spaghetti, and about 1 cup of the shredded cheese.
- Stir until well combined. Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes, or until bubbly. Sprinkle the last cup of cheese on top of the casserole and bake for 5 more minutes, or until the cheese melts.
Notes
-If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, you can transfer the casserole to a greased 9x13" baking dish. It will take a few more minutes to cook.
