I followed the recipe exactly and my chicken tetrazzini turned out watery. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This chicken tetrazzini is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra salt and pepper to taste and it was much better.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I didn't even notice them in this chicken tetrazzini. The sauce was so creamy and flavorful that it completely masked the mushrooms.
