EASY CHICKEN TETRAZZINI



Easy Chicken Tetrazzini image

This is a recipe that utilizes rotisserie chicken from the grocery store deli, jars of prepared Alfredo sauce, canned mushrooms, and jarred chopped garlic. I used the classic Alfredo sauce so that I could add my own sauteed garlic and onion. It was quick and easy to prepare and outstanding in flavor. This recipe is a great template; add or subtract ingredients to your heart's desire. If you are not a purist cook, this is a keeper. If desired, add a cup or so of frozen peas or broccoli to the sauce prior to mixing with the pasta. Garlic bread and a tossed salad rounded out this meal that bowled my family over. I wouldn't hesitate to serve this to company.

EASY SKILLET CHICKEN TETRAZZINI



Easy Skillet Chicken Tetrazzini image

I got this recipe from a Campbells Soup add in one of those 'family' magazines years ago. I lost the recipe, but have made it so many times, that I'm posting it here from memory, for safe-keeping. I haven't been able to find this recipe anywhere, including the Campbell's web site, so I'm hoping that my memory serves me well. I cut the green bell pepper into 1/2 inch dice, because it makes a prettier presentation. Enjoy.
