Chicken Spaghetti (Baked Spaghetti)

mammamia #2's Note:

I have searched for years for a chicken spaghetti recipe that my children liked; most were too runny. This is a casserole with a bit of heat from the Rotel tomatoes. Even my flavor/cooking challenged eldest daughter loves this.

• Total Time: 1 hrs 20 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 1 hrs

Ingredients:

• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/3 cup chopped green pepper (I used more, and even added some red bell pepper just because I had some on hand)
• 1/2 cup chopped onion (I use about 3/4 c)
• 1 cup cheddar cheese
• 5 chicken breasts, boiled and cut into bite sized pieces (could use thighs and breasts)

This was delicious! It does have a kick from the rotel, however I used one mild and one original rotel to help lessen the heat. I also use deli rotisserie chicken. I will definately be making again.

This is very good and very easy to make. I followed the recipe exaclty except that I added more cheese. It is a five star recipe, however, it is a bit to spicey for children (at least my children). I ended up having to open a can of spaghettios for my three and six year old. In the future I will make this with only one can of rotel and one can of diced tomatoes to help with the spice. Made for PAC Fall 2008. I just have to add to this review. I just had left overs for lunch. Man this taste even better the next day.
