SKILLET PARMESAN CHICKEN



Skillet Parmesan Chicken image

This is real comfort food. A family favorite. If you can, buy the fresh mozzarella. You won't believe the difference and it's worth it. The texture isn't rubbery like the typical mozzarella. I got it from watching an Emeril show on the Food Network.

VELVEETA CHICKEN SPAGHETTI



Velveeta Chicken Spaghetti image

Delicious! A good company dish. Everyone always seems to enjoy this dish and I usually get asked for the recipe.

Provided by Recipe USA

Categories     Low Cholesterol

Time 1h

Yield 8-10 , 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup bell pepper
1/2 cup oleo or 1/2 cup olive oil
1 medium onion
2 (12 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 (12 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1 (12 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
3 cups diced cooked chicken
1 (16 ounce) can Rotel Tomatoes
1 lb thin spaghetti
1/2 lb Velveeta cheese
salt and pepper
1 (12 ounce) can mushrooms
1 (12 ounce) can black pitted olives

Steps:

  • In a large skillet or cooking pot, saute bell pepper and onion in oleo (or olive oil if you prefer).
  • Add 1 can of chicken broth and chicken. Simmer until tender. Cut chicken into bite-size pieces as it's cooking. Use 3 cups of chicken. (I've used packaged chicken tenderloins, as well as pre-cooked chicken from the deli. Whatever is convenient. It's all good.).
  • Add all soups and Ro-tel tomatoes. Stir well. Simmer for about 15 minutes until chicken is done.
  • Cook the spaghetti in boiling water or chicken broth until just slightly cooked "al dente" - you don't want to over-cook it because it will be cooking more in the oven. Drain, rinse, and set aside until you are ready to mix with chicken/sauce ingredients in baking dish for the oven.
  • In a large baking dish or oven-proof pot, place the cooked and cut up chicken, cooked spaghetti, salt and pepper, cheese, and soup mixture.
  • Depending on how creamy you like this dish, you may want to add extra chicken broth before you bake. (I always do).
  • Stir very well to mix all ingredients evenly. I usually stir once after about 15 minutes in the oven - after the cheese has had time to melt. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.
  • You can add canned or fresh mushrooms if you like.
  • Also, for a nice touch - (looks pretty for guests) you can add one can of black olives, sprinkled over the top of the casserole. (optional).(I slice them to make them go further).
  • Please note that if you want to cut the fat from your diet, this tastes equally good with fat-free soups and the "lite" velveeta. You can also leave out the olive oil or oleo and spray the pan with pam and add extra fat-free chicken broth.
  • A good company dish. Everyone always seems to enjoy this dish and I usually get asked for the recipe. Also, children seem to especially like this dish.

Tips:

  • Use a large skillet: This will help to ensure that the chicken and vegetables have enough space to cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: If you add too much chicken or vegetables to the skillet, they will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the chicken in batches if necessary: If you are using a small skillet or if you have a lot of chicken to cook, you may need to cook it in batches.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through: The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove it from the skillet.
  • Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook it.
  • Use a good quality marinara sauce: The marinara sauce is a key ingredient in this dish, so be sure to use a good quality sauce that you enjoy.
  • Don't skimp on the cheese: The cheese is what makes this dish so delicious, so be sure to use plenty of it.
  • Let the dish rest before serving: This will help the flavors to meld together and will make the dish even more delicious.

Conclusion:

This Velveeta Chicken Parmesan Skillet is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is sure to please the whole family. The chicken is cooked in a creamy Velveeta sauce and then topped with Parmesan cheese and pasta. This dish is comfort food at its best and is sure to become a family favorite.
