Title: Chicken Spaghetti
Categories: Pasta, Poultry, Vegetables, Dairy, Cheese
Yield: 4 servings

12 oz Uncooked spaghetti; in 2"
- pieces
1/4 c Butter; cubed
1 md Onion, chopped
2 cl Garlic; minced
3 tb A-P flour
2 c Milk
3 c Diced, cooked, chicken
10 3/4 oz Can cream of mushroom soup;
- undiluted
4 oz Jar diced pimentos; drained
4 oz Cream cheese; diced
1 1/2 c Shredded Cheddar cheese;
- divided
1/2 ts Pepper

Set the oven @ 350┬║F/175┬║C.

Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain it
when itΓÇÖs done, reserving a few cups of the pasta water
so you can mix some into the sauce.

Meanwhile, in a Dutch oven, melt butter over medium
heat. Add onion; cook and stir until itΓÇÖs translucent
and beginning to soften, 6-8 minutes. Add garlic; cook
and stir 1 minute longer.

Love mushrooms? You can add some fresh, sliced button or
cremini mushrooms to the mix when you put the onions in
the pan.

Whisk flour into the garlic and onion mixture until
blended, then slowly add the milk, whisking as you go.
Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened,
about 2 minutes.

Into your roux, stir the chicken soup, pimentos, cream
cheese, 3/4 cup shredded cheese and pepper. Add
spaghetti and toss to coat. If needed, add a little of
your reserved pasta water until the sauce is a nice,
creamy consistency.

For extra zing, whisk in a squeeze of lemon juice or a
couple teaspoons of tomato paste.

Transfer to a greased 13" X 9" baking dish. Sprinkle
with the remaining 3/4 cup shredded cheese. Cover and
bake 20 minutes. Uncover and bake until bubbly, 10-15
minutes longer. If you have fresh herbs at home,
sprinkle minced oregano, basil or sage over each portion
before serving.

Because chicken spaghetti is super creamy, a light,
refreshing side dish is a great move. Think cucumbers,
tomatoes, crisp salads or lightly sauteed veggies. For
more ideas, consult our full list of sides to go with
casseroles.
