Steps:
- 1. Cook the Spaghetti pieces until done. In a saucepan or double boiler, mix the soup, milk, and cheese and heat through, till the cheese is melted . In a baking dish, place the spaghetti, chicken and broccoli and pour the soup mixture over top. Bake in a 325 oven for 45 - 60 minutes.
Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will make your casserole more colorful and nutritious. Some good options include broccoli, zucchini, carrots, and bell peppers. Try to use fresh vegetables, as they will have more flavor and nutrients than frozen or canned vegetables.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is dry and tough. Cook it just until it is cooked through, which is usually about 10 minutes per side for boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
- Use a creamy sauce. A creamy sauce will help to make your casserole moist and flavorful. You can use a jarred Alfredo sauce, or you can make your own sauce by combining milk, cream, and cheese.
- Season the casserole well. Use salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add herbs, such as basil, oregano, or thyme.
- Top the casserole with cheese. This will give it a golden brown crust. You can use any type of cheese you like, but mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan are all good choices.
- Bake the casserole until it is bubbly and hot. This usually takes about 20 minutes.
Conclusion:
Spaghetti chicken casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple tips, you can make a spaghetti chicken casserole that is sure to please everyone at the table.
