Chicken Spaghetti

Published by jjjstzr at 9:27 am under Good Food, Cheap Edit This

Try this cheesy chicken spaghetti for dinner tonight. It has a mexican twist because of the rotel and cumin. It is a super easy meal that can be made ahead of time and heated up for dinner. I use chicken thighs, but any chicken will work. Enjoy!

2 lbs chicken (6-7 chicken thighs) 
1-2 qts water
salt & pepper
1 Tbs garlic powder
1 Tbs cumin powder
1/2 Tbs cilantro 
1/2 Tbs basil
1/2 Tbs onion powder 
1 can cream of mushroom soup 
1 can cream of chicken soup 
1 can rotel, mild 
1 lg can mushrooms 
1 small onion, diced 
1 lb. noodles 
2 cups shredded cheddar 
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. 
  2. Place chicken in stock pot, cover with water. Add seasonings; they are basically to taste, add more or less as you want. Bring water to a boil. Reduce, and simmer until juices of chicken run clear. Remove chicken and cool.
  3. Cook noodles until al dente. Any noodles will work, but my family prefers rotini. I also cook the noodles in the chicken broth, after I strain off the fat. If you use just water, season with salt. Drain and rinse noodles.
  4. In a casserole dish or 9×13 pan, combine soups, rotel, mushrooms and onion. Mix well.
  5. Shred chicken and mix chicken and noodles into soup mixture. Spread into casserole dish.
  6. Top with cheese and bake until cheese bubbles.

This can also be served over rice instead of noodles. Makes enough to feed 6 adults.
