Excellent recipe! I used whole wheat spaghetti and petite diced tomatoes. I cooked the chicken in my air fryer. Turned out very well!
I have made this one time before and it was very good and the family liked it to. Thanks Bert
LOVED LOVED LOVED that this cooked the spaghetti in the water the chicken was cooked in. It added a TON of flavor. As written though, it needed way more liquid to get the cheese to melt. I added some boxed chicken broth but it still needed more so I added some milk. Overall great recipe though so I am giving it 4 stars. Plan on more liquid.
Used Mexican cheese.
Super easy and cheesy!
Followed recipe completely. Wouldn’t change a thing! Great flavor!
Yum! Quick, easy midweek, one bowl dinner. Plenty of leftovers for the hubs the next day for work. I did keep some of the broth I cooked the spaghetti in and added with the soup and cheese. This kept it from being too thick.
I love it. It was something different than fried chicken all the time. Will definitely make it again.
Awesome creamy spicy delicious quick and filling with garlic bread and salad
I double this recipe and go ahead and bake it in a casserole dish and it feeds me and my kids for a few days. Btw this recipe is kid friendly
It was a hit with the family! Though I used two cans of chicken and 1lb of spaghetti noodles. It’s what I had on hand. Added some milk and butter to thin the cheese some. It was perfect!
I make this a lot but I do add ingredients for my own preferences. I add chopped fresh garlic, onions and peppers to the water when boiling my chicken. I also sauté fresh sliced portabella mushrooms in butter and mix them in at the finish. But this is a great recipe as is also!!
I added sauted onion and green bell peppers and cut cheese in half. Great foundational recipe!
I as well cut back on the Velveta. I added a small bit of chicken broth to smooth it out some.
Love it. I did cut back on the velvetta cheese though.
double quanities on everything due to making a larger portion DELICIOUS!!!!! Gonna be even better tomorrow when they eat it!!!! DEFINITELY WILL MAKE AGAIN
Not bad. I may try to substitute a higher quality cheese sauce for the Velveeta next time though. We doubled the pasta and even with this in place the cheese nearly overwhelmed everything. However, it was still a good weeknight dish – easy and quick to prepare, which is why I would make it again.
I cut this down to three servings because it was just for the carnivore man. I did use suggestions and sautéed onion and celery in butter. I didn’t have bell but did have shrooms, so I added those. Then added the soup, tomatoes, pasta and cheese. I also put it in a casserole dish topped with spicy bread crumbs and baked till brown while I steamed some vegetables, toasted garlic bread and made a salad. He loved it. It was great comfort food. Will have to do this again.
It was so creamy!! My family ate it right up and it was super easy and quick to make
Great tasting and easy to make. I had 8 people to dinner and every one loved it. A big success. I will be making it again.
I would make again, I took the suggestion to use only 8oz on Velveeta. Would probably use a little more next time.
