Certainly! Here’s a simple recipe for creamy Chicken Tetrazzini:
Ingredients:
- 8 oz. spaghetti or fettuccine
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz. mushrooms, sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- Optional: breadcrumbs for topping
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
- Cook the spaghetti or fettuccine according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown, about 5-6 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to get rid of the raw flour taste.
- Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Allow the mixture to simmer and thicken for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Add the cooked chicken and cooked pasta to the skillet, tossing everything together until well combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top. If desired, sprinkle breadcrumbs over the cheese for a crunchy topping.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the tetrazzini is heated through.
- Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy your creamy Chicken Tetrazzini!
