This is a recipe for a creamy baked chicken spaghetti recipe. I enjoy this recipe because it doesn't contain any "cream of" soups and it's very simple to make. The creamy red sauce is just delicious, I think. This recipe is from Paula Deen.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups diced cooked chicken (or shredded)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
8 ounces tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, 2 ounces

Steps:

  • Put the chicken in a greased 8x6" baking pan; toss with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder to coat.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the cream cheese, tomato sauce, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder and Italian seasoning until smooth. This is where I added my extra veggies as well.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken and top with the parmesan cheese. Bake at 350ยบ 25-30 minutes.
  • Do not freeze.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and nutrition to your casserole. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, celery, onions, and zucchini.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breasts are very thin, so they can easily become dry if they are overcooked. Cook them until they are just cooked through, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what will really bring your casserole to life. You can use a variety of sauces, such as a tomato sauce, a cream sauce, or a pesto sauce.
  • Top the casserole with cheese. Cheese is a classic topping for casseroles, and it adds a delicious flavor and texture. You can use any type of cheese that you like, but some good options include cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake the casserole until it is bubbly and golden brown. This will ensure that the casserole is cooked through and that the cheese is melted and gooey.

Conclusion:

Italian chicken casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and satisfying meal that your whole family will love.
