Light Chicken Tetrazzini image

This came from Cooking Light as a Turkey Tetrazzini, but I used leftover chicken which worked well. Very creamy and yummy! This can be made ahead and refrigerated--just bake before you're ready to serve. It makes 6 very generous servings.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I think I would have preferred a lighter sauce.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my liking, but the flavor was good. I would try this recipe again with a thinner sauce.
