Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz spaghetti
- 3 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 medium onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp paprika (optional)
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs (for topping, optional)
- 2 tbsp parsley (chopped, for garnish, optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
Cook the spaghetti according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and chicken broth. Mix until smooth.
Fold the cooked chicken, sautéed onion and garlic mixture, cooked spaghetti, shredded cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese into the soup mixture. Stir until well combined.
Season the mixture with salt, black pepper, and paprika (if using). Adjust seasoning to taste.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
If desired, sprinkle breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the casserole for added crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbling around the edges and heated through.
If desired, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes to achieve a golden, crispy topping.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
