I had not had chicken spaghetti until I moved to the South, it seems to be a southern staple and oh boy is it delicious! This recipe is my friend Donna’s and she is a wonderful cook. I have tasted many different recipes of chicken spaghetti since living here for nearly 20 years and this recipe by far is the best I’ve tasted. Make this recipe for company when they come and they will love it, I promise. It’s creamy, cheesy and full of chicken flavor with a slight kick to it. Enjoy this comfort food from the South.

16 oz. spaghetti

Directions:
Step 1: Boil chicken and debone if not using boneless chicken breast, save the broth.
Step 2: Boil spaghetti in chicken broth; drain and rinse in hot water.
Step 3: In a large skillet, melt margarine and sauté celery, onion, bell pepper. Cook slowly until tender; then add undiluted soups and cheese, cooked until melted and bubbly. Combine chicken, spaghetti and all the other ingredients. Add some broth if dry. Put in 9×13 pans or a size larger dish and cover with foil.
