I made Chicken Spaghetti from "The Pioneer Woman Cooks" a couple weeks ago and it was really good!! I ate the left over for lunch at work the next 2 days after. It is a perfect dish for a big family.
Here are the ingredients:
1 cut-up fryer chicken
1 pound thin spaghetti broken into 2-ince pieces
One 4-ounce jar diced pimientos, drained
1 small onion
1/4 cup diced green pepper
2 cans cream of mushroom soup
2 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
1 tsp seasoned salt (I used Lawry's)
black pepper to taste
1/8 to 1/4 cayenne pepper
The Process: Preheat to 350 degrees
Add the chicken to a stock pot. Cover with water and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until the chicken is cooked, about 25-30 minutes. Then Remove chicken and set aside to cool. Remove 2 cups of broth from the pot and set aside.
Bring the remaining broth back to boil and add the spaghetti. Cook it al dente. Drain the spaghetti, discarding the cooking liquid. Set aside.
With your fingers (or 2 forks) remove the chicken from the bones. Shred or cut into bite size pieces. Drain the Pimientos. (sorry this picture is kind of disgusting).
Dice the vegetables. Dice the green pepper and onion.
Place the cooked spaghetti into a large bowl and add the cream of mushroom soup. Add 2 cups of cheddar cheese then add the green pepper and onion and pimiento. Add the black pepper and cayenne pepper (I didn't but that is b/c I forgot it at the store. It will just add some heat to your dish:) Finally add the chicken and the broth. Stir well together and check seasonings.
Pour the mixture into a large baking pan and top with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until bubbly.
Yum!!
And Enjoy!!
