Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or butter and set aside.
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced green bell pepper and onion. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked vegetables, shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, diced tomatoes with green chilies, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, chicken broth, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully combined.
Add the cooked spaghetti to the mixture and gently toss until the spaghetti is well coated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish and spread it evenly. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and golden.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
