Spicy Chicken Spaghetti created by Mika G.

A quick, easy, one-dish weeknight meal invented by my mother-in-law. We love this stuff and use lots of jalapenos!! Chicken Spaghetti Texas-Style. The mix of jalapenos and cream keeps it from being too hot but maintains the spicy flavor. We serve with garlic bread for scooping up the sauce and a veggie on the side.

I love this recipe, I add a few more Jalapenos and extra Juice for a little more spice. I've been cooking this for Quite a few years

This was really good! I used whole wheat penne, added 2 cans of mushrooms and put it all in a 9x13 pan with cheese on top. I will make this again! Thanks!

Made this the other night. It was quite good. I'm not sure how much jalapeno and juice I used but I'm fairly certain it was more than called for and it still wasn't super spicy. Very tasty and I had some left over the next day, just cooked more pasta and heated the sauce/chicken in a small skillet. Thanks.

I thought this was very good. I used minced fresh and pickeled jalapenos, added chopped cilantro at the end. I just needed more than a half a cup to thin out the sauce. For the salt portion, I used Goya adobo seasoning. I halved the recipe. Next time , I will make the full recipe and freeze the leftovers. Thank you for the recipe.
