Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti Preparation

PREP TIME: 30 min BAKE TIME: 30-45 min

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Coat a frying pan with 1/4 cup oil. Cook chicken breasts until lightly browned on each side (8-10 minutes total). Chop chicken breasts into 1 inch cubes and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a large dutch oven cook the spaghetti per package directions. Cook to al dente, drain and set aside.

Chop all the vegetables. Melt butter or margarine in small skillet and add the vegetables. Saute the vegetables until they are tender and translucent in color.

In a large microwave safe bowl combine VELVEETA, chicken broth and cream of chicken soup. Place in microwave and cook on low for 5-7 minutes or until mixture is smooth and cheese is melted (you can also unse the defrost setting). After the cheese mixture is melted and combined add the cooked vegetables with butter, spaghetti noodles and chicken pieces. Stir all to combine.

Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray and add combined mixture. Top the finished casserole with 8 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese. Place the casserole in preheated oven and bake for about 45 minutes or until cheese is golden brown andd casserole is bubbly. Remove from oven, let cool slightly and serve.

Notes

TIME SAVE TIP: If a 9x13 inch dish is too large, you can prepare in (2) 8 x 8 inch sized pans. Serve one for dinner and freeze the seconnd one. To freeze, assemble the casserole and then cover the unbaked casserole with plastic wrap, and 2 layers of foil. Date and place in freezer. When ready to cook, remove from the freezer, defrost and proceed with the baking instructions.

    This was just okay for us. I ended up skipping the butter and putting the veggies in the oil because 1/4 cup was just SO much! It ended up tasting really oily to me.

    This was okay, but a little heavy on the cheese for my family.

    Very delicious! I changed a few things. I used a rotisserie chicken, green chiles, and shredded jack/cheddar mix. It turned out really good!!
