Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons salted butter
1 (8 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 (23 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1 (14 ounce) can diced tomatoes, drained
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

This is a delicious Twist on chicken spaghetti. The addition of Italian sausage and just that right zing to make it totally irresistible. I use chicken thighs in this recipe because it's what I like, but you can use chicken breast if you prefer. I just love the cheesy flavor and the fact that there are no cans used only fresh...

Provided by Robin Lieneke

Categories     Pasta

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 chicken thighs, boneless and skinless, cut in one inch pieces
1 lb sweet italian sausage
1/2 onion, diced
1/2 green pepper, diced
5 cremini mushrooms, diced
1 small zucchini, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/3 c olive oil
1 Tbsp butter
1 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/4 c all purpose flour
3 c milk
1 lb spaghetti
1/3 c parmesan cheese, grated
3 c colby cheese, shredded
1-2 tsp seasoning salt
2 tsp italian seasoning
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Brown Italian sausage in one tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside. Season the chicken breast with one teaspoon of Italian seasoning and half a teaspoon of seasoning salt. In the same skillet add another tablespoon of olive oil and brown the chicken. Set the chicken aside reserving the remaining olive oil in the pan.
  • 2. Boil the spaghetti according to package directions until it is just al dente. Set aside reserving the pasta water.
  • 3. Add one tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet and the zucchini pieces. Saute for 2 minutes. Add 1/3 cup of the pasta water and cover. Simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until zucchini is tender but not mushy. Remove the zucchini from the skillet and set aside. Discard any liquid remaining in the skillet.
  • 4. And the remaining olive oil and butter to the skillet. Add worcestershire sauce. Saute the onions, bell peppers and mushrooms until they are soft. Sprinkle the flour over these vegetables and stir until the flour is combined. Saute for a minute or two to get rid of that raw flour taste.
  • 5. Pour milk into the skillet with vegetables and stir until it starts to thicken. Add the remaining seasoning salt and Italian seasoning. If it becomes too thick use a little pasta water to thin the mixture to a sauce consistency. Add the tomatoes and parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
  • 6. Drain the spaghetti. Add the meats, zucchini and the shredded cheese to the spaghetti and pour the sauce over the mixture. Stir together until all cheese is melted. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot with some garlic bread and a salad to make a completely comforting meal.

CHEESY CHICKEN SPAGHETTI



Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti image

This family friendly quick and easy chicken casserole brings sweet bell pepper, onion, tomatoes, garlic and seasoned rotisserie chicken together in a creamy cheddar cheese sauce.

Provided by Beth Pierce

Categories     Pasta

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 oz uncooked spaghrtti
5 Tbsp butter
1 small onion finely chopped
1 red bell pepper finely diced
2 clove garlic minced
1/4 c all purpose flour
1 c low sodium chicken broth
2 c (2% or whole) milk
1 can(s) mild diced tomatoes and green chilies drained
1/8 tsp ground cayenne pepper
2 1/2 c shredded sharp cheddar
1/4 c freshly grated parmesan cheese
2 c cooked cubed rotisserie chicken

Steps:

  • 1. Cook spaghetti according to box instructions and drain well.
  • 2. Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and bell pepper and cook until starting to soften; approximately 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute. Sprinkle the vegetables with flour. Cook for 2-3 minutes; stirring frequently.
  • 3. Slowly stir in the chicken broth and milk alternating between the two. Stir in drained tomatoes and ground cayenne pepper. Cook until slightly thickened; approximately 5 minutes. Stir in 2 cups shredded cheddar and grated Parmesan in small quantities until melted. Add cooked chicken and continue stirring until heated through.
  • 4. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Add cooked spaghetti to casserole dish. Pour chicken cheese sauce over the top of the spaghetti. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted and casserole is heated through.

Tips:

  • Choose the right type of chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are ideal for this recipe. 
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Use a high-quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese or a blend of cheddar and mozzarella cheese will give you the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook it, or it will become mushy.
  • Add some vegetables to the dish. Chopped broccoli, carrots, or zucchini would all be great additions.
  • Serve the dish immediately. This dish is best served hot, so make sure to serve it as soon as it's finished cooking.

Conclusion:

Cheesy chicken spaghetti is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
