A favorite at my table and this makes a large casserole. The sliced almonds on the top are a nice touch. I have made this without and I prefer them. Hope you enjoy as much as my family and friends do.

How To Make chicken tetrazini

  • 1
    Begin by cooking chicken breast with onion and celery low temp. approx. 45 minutes. With lid remaining on pot turn off heat and allow this to sit 30 minutes. I have found chicken is more tender and flavorful if allowed to cool down in the broth. Remove chicken breast to a dish to cool. (Then cut into bite sized pieces.) Reserve 1 cup broth for sauce. While chicken is cooling, sauté bell peppers and onions when beginning to get tender, add mushrooms and pimento. Bring broth to a boil and break the spaghetti into thirds into the broth, cook until al dente’ Add mushroom soup, wine and broth to vegetables, then cheese I add a little cayenne. Add chicken and spaghetti, mix and pour into a large baking dish. Cover top with grated parmesan cheese then sliced almonds. Bake at 350 until bubbly. Serve with Italian bread and Salad.
