Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cooked spaghetti, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, chicken broth, diced green bell pepper, diced onion, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the casserole, followed by the buttered breadcrumbs.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
