Chick, Chick, Chicken Tetrazzini

Chick Chick Chicken Tetrazzini


Chick Chick Chicken Tetrazzini Recipe
This is an oh so yummy casserole and is great to take along for pot luck gatherings.

Lor

Ingredients:
  • 3-4 cups cooked diced/chopped chicken breast
  • 4-6 ounces thin spaghetti, cooked as directed on package
  • Note: I use whole wheat pasta and I like to break my spaghetti in half.
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup slivered almonds, toasted (optional)
  • 1 can (10 3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup (cream of chicken or cream of celery soup can also be used)
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly grated
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup white wine or sherry
  • 1/4 cup whipping cream, whipped
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Note: I often saute a couple of ribs of celery along with 1 onion and toss that into the mixture.

Directions:
  1. Place spaghetti in a buttered 2-quart casserole. Spread chicken over spaghetti. Sprinkle with the toasted almonds.
  2. Combine soup, Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, mayonnaise, sherry, and whipped cream. Pour over casserole. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350° for 30 minutes.
  3. Note: To toast almonds, spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Toast in a 350° oven, stirring occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes. Or, toast in an ungreased skillet over medium heat, stirring, until golden brown and aromatic.
