Chicken Tetrazzini Casserole

"I have made many Chicken Tetrazzini recipes but I always come back to this one. This also freezes well. Reduced fat and reduced sodium mushroom soup and alfredo sauce can be used to lighten up this dish. Adapted from Southern Living."

Questions & Replies

  1. Does this freeze will before baking to have on hand just to pop into oven for unexpected company
     
  2. Looks delicious. Has anyone tried substituting Zoodles (zucchini noodles) for the spaghetti?
     
  3. What is the best way to cook the chicken to use in the recipe?

  1. An easy and delicious recipe. I couldn't find vermicelli, so I used spaghetti instead. I love the flavor of the sherry and mushrooms, makes for an elegant yet very satisfying meal.
     
  2. My family really enjoyed this dish. I used cooked dark meat chicken, a 16 ounce jar of alfredo sauce that had parmesan cheese as an ingredient, one can of cream of chicken and mushroom soup, I didn't use the chicken broth, instead I used a little low fat milk to thin the mixture. I used fresh mushrooms instead of canned and added a bit of garlic pepper in place of the ground pepper. Once I placed this concoction into a casserole dish, I sprinkled it with Hungarian paprika. I served this with garlic bread sticks. Wow, this is good stuff. Hubby is taking a dish to work for lunch; he was a very happy camper tonight. I realize I made some pretty major changes, but I need to add that oftentimes I will take a recipe as an outline that will guide me to a meal that I can prepare with items I have on hand. Your recipe was an awesome guide and deserves the 5-star credit for leading the way for me. Thank you!
     
  3. First I have to say that this was a hubby cooking project. I think that he was "creative". and missed a few ingredients..I didn't find any mushrooms and I know that they were supposed to be there. The important thing is that even if he mangled the recipe as written it still tasted really good! In my book any recipe that can survive DH's cooking and still be a pleasure to eat has earned 5 stars in my book
     
  4. Followed this recipe to a t and we really enjoyed it. I think if it included some garlic, it would've gotten 5 stars. I'll have to add it next time!
     
  5. Quick, easy and delicious. I used spaghetti because that is what I had. No sherry just added extra chicken broth. The whole family liked it.

  1. Using the Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup with roasted garlic really kicks the flavor level up a couple notches...

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have two boys Eddie 18 and Brandon 10. I have been with my hubby for 16 years. I work full time outside the home and my boys keep me busy at home. Eddie is a singer and base guitar player in a band and Brandon races go karts. We also have a Collie/Beagle mix named Sugar. I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes. I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes. I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things. I collect cookbooks and recipes in general. I usually start with a recipe and tweak to my families liking. My Rating System: 5 Stars = The whole family enjoyed the dish and it will be added to my TNT cookbook. Book #220911. These recipes will be made again and again. 4 Stars = Recipe was good, but needed some modifications or it was good but not something we would want on a regular basis. Also goes into my TNT-4 star recipe cookbook. Book #220912 3 Stars = It was edible, but won't be made again. 2 Stars = Needs some kind of major adjustments. 1 Stars = Inedible, didn't work, waste of ingredients.
