WHAT IS CHICKEN SPAGHETTI?

If you havenโ€™t heard of Chicken Spaghetti, it was popularized by Pioneer Woman and then embraced by every comfort food connoisseur โ€“ because itโ€™s creamy, cheesy, customizable and SO GOOD! 

Traditional Chicken Spaghetti is similar to tetrazzini in that pasta is enveloped a bรฉchamel or cream sauce, topped with cheese, and baked in a casserole dish BUT this chicken spaghetti recipe doesn’t have to be baked so it can be on your table in 20 minutes – winning! 

What makes this the Best Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

This creamy Chicken Spaghetti recipe joins my favorite pastas: Classic LasagnaChicken Alfredo, Bolognese, One Pot Chili MacCheesy Taco Pasta Bake, Million Dollar Macaroni and Cheese and my Million Dollar Baked Penne as comfort food at its most scrumptious BUT it takes a fraction of the time to make!  

I took some liberties with the traditional Chicken Spaghetti recipe to make it QUICKER, and MORE DELICIOUS!

  • Quicker:  This Chicken Spaghetti recipe uses shredded rotisserie chicken to make it easy to throw together in minutes.  It also doesnโ€™t get baked in the oven, but instead we add the extra cheese directly to the pasta sauce.  I find this method produces creamier pasta AND it saves you 25 minutes of baking time.  Of course, if you want to make baked chicken spaghetti โ€“ then go for it!  You would just transfer the spaghetti to a 9×13 baking dish, top with cheese and bake until warm and bubbly. 
  • More Delicious:  The biggest change I made to Pioneer Womanโ€™s Chicken Spaghetti recipe is to use from-scratch bechamel sauce instead of cream of mushroom soup.  I love making my own creamy soups like in my Chicken Divan recipe, because they taste WAY better, contain no mystery ingredients (AKA better for you), and only take minutes to whip up.

More reasons to love this Easy Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

  • Pantry friendly:  The ingredients for this cheesy Chicken Spaghetti are pantry friendly: flour, broth, tomatoes, chicken etc., so itโ€™s easy to make at a momentโ€™s notice and always a great clean-out-the pantry meal to add some extra veggies.
  • 20 minutes!  Because we arenโ€™t making baked chicken spaghetti, this dinner can be on your table in less than 20 minutes!  Simply make the roux, add the broth and cream, simmer, then add the chicken and spaghetti!
  • Make Ahead:  This Chicken Spaghetti recipe reheats beautifully either on the stove, or you can transfer it to a casserole dish, top with cheese, and keep in the fridge for up to two days.  When ready to eat, simply bake and it will taste just as delicious as when first made.  
  • Freezer Friendly:  Baked Chicken Spaghetti also makes a great freezer meal.  Transfer chicken spaghetti to a casserole dish, top with cheese, cover and freeze for up to two months.  Now you already have dinner for those crazy nights, when something unexpected pops up or to gift to a friend or neighbor in need. 

Ingredients for Chicken Spaghetti

This easy Chicken Spaghetti recipe requires pantry friendly ingredients so you always have everything on hand for a quick dinner. You will need:

FOR THE PASTA:

  • recommended pasta:  spaghetti!  I love how the long silky noodles cradle the silky sauce. I don’t recommend angel hair pasta as itโ€™s a little thin to hold up against the sauce in my opinion. 
  • different pasta shapes:  fettuccine is also fabulous.  You may also use short pastas such as penne, fusilli, etc. if thatโ€™s all you have on hand but they donโ€™t deliverer the same luxurious, slurpilicous experience.  Go spaghetti if you can.
  • pastas types: You can use classic spaghetti, whole-wheat spaghetti or gluten free spaghetti.  I havenโ€™t tried it with zoodles or spaghetti squash but I imagine it would work well.

FOR THE CHICKEN:

  • shredded chicken: I love using shredded rotisserie chicken in this creamy Chicken Spaghetti recipe.  Not only does it make dinner come together in minutes, but itโ€™s also juicy tender and melts in your mouth with the sauce. 
  • frozen rotisserie chicken:  my biggest tip to be able to make this easy Chicken Spaghetti at a momentโ€™s notice is to keep some shredded rotisserie chicken in the freezer – now you have ALL the ingredients to make this favorite dinner any time.  Simply grab a rotisserie chicken from Costco (or make your own), divide it into 2 cup portions and store it in the freezer.
  • Cook your own chicken:  if you want to cook your own chicken for this cheesy Chicken Spaghetti instead of using rotisserie chicken, it is super easy, hereโ€™s how:
    • Chop 1-pound chicken into bite size pieces. 
    • While the chicken is still on the cutting board, dab with a paper towel then toss with ¼ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon pepper, ¼ teaspoon paprika.
    • Melt one tablespoon butter (may sub olive oil) over medium heat.
    • Increase heat to medium high and add chicken in a single layer and sear for one minute without moving chicken then continue to cook and stir chicken just until cooked through. Remove to a plate.

FOR THE CHICKEN SPAGHETTI SAUCE:

The sauce for this Chicken Spaghetti recipe is deliciously homemade without any canned soups.  Itโ€™s wonderfully creamy, flavorful and as cheesy as you want it!  You will need:

  • butter:  use unsalted butter so we can control the level of salt.
  • olive oil:  quality olive oil for the best flavor.
  • garlic cloves:  is essential for any pasta!  Use 4-6 garlic cloves depending on your garlic love.
  • all-purpose flour:  thickens the sauce beautifully by creating a roux so we donโ€™t have to use all heavy cream.  You may also use gluten free flour.
  • low sodium chicken broth: is more flavorful than just milk or heavy cream. You can also substitute vegetable broth.  Make sure you use low sodium broth so your creamy Chicken Spaghetti isnโ€™t too salty.
  • Heavy cream:  is also called โ€œheavy whipping cream.โ€ Just ยฝ cup adds that something-something luxurious that elevates the entire dish. If you donโ€™t want to use heavy cream, it is not essential, but just fabulous.
  • seasonings:  in addition to garlic, this cheesy Chicken Spaghetti is seasoned with dried basil, dried parsley, dried thyme, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, onion powder, salt, pepper and chicken bouillon.  You can add more or less of any of the seasonings to suite your tastes. 
showing how to make chicken spaghetti by adding seasonings to chicken spaghetti sauce
  • diced tomatoes: You may use Rotel tomatoes (diced tomatoes with green chiles) which are often used in Chicken Spaghetti or I love using fire roasted diced tomatoes. Fire roasted tomatoes are NOT spicy โ€“ the fire simply means they have been roasted which gives them a complex smokiness and removes the acidic bite.  Fire roasted tomatoes are located next to the traditional diced tomatoes โ€“ just make sure you get the ones without any added seasonings.  If you canโ€™t find fire roasted diced tomatoes, then go Rotel or traditional diced tomatoes.
  • Sharp Cheddar cheese:  adds the distinctive sharp cheddar flavor that cheesy Chicken Spaghetti is known for -and itโ€™s awesome.  Please use freshly grated sharp cheddar cheese for its superior melting ability.  Pre-packaged shredded cheeses are coated in anti-clumping chemicals which also inhibits its melting ability.
  • Parmesan cheese:  is a fantastic salty, nutty companion to the sharp cheddar cheese.  For best results and the BEST Chicken Spaghetti recipe, use ONLY freshly grated Parmesan cheese.  It is much more flavorful and melts into silky oblivion unlike powdered or pre-shredded cheese.

How to make Easy Chicken Spaghetti

Now letโ€™s get to the main event.  Hereโ€™s how to make Chicken Spaghetti:

STEP 1:  Cook pasta 

  • Begin by cooking your spaghetti just until al dente according to package directions.  Al dente means the pasta will still have a little bite.  Reserve ½ cup pasta water before draining pasta.  This will give you the option to thin the sauce if needed with reserved pasta water. 

STEP 2:  Make Chicken Spaghetti Sauce

  • While your spaghetti is cooking, make the easy, creamy, cheesy, from-scratch spaghetti sauce.  To make the sauce, cook flour and garlic in butter/olive oil, stir in chicken broth, heavy cream, tomatoes, seasonings and simmer until thickened.

  • Finally, stir in cheddar until melted, followed by Parmesan until melted.

STEP 3:  Combine

  • Stir in chicken and heat through.

  • Stir in pasta until well coated, adding additional reserved pasta water a little at a time if needed to reach desired consistency.

  • Taste and season with additional salt, pepper and/or red pepper flakes to taste –  thatโ€™s it!  Easy Chicken Spaghetti on your table in less than 20 minutes!

Can I make Chicken Spaghetti in advance?

Yes!  This Chicken Spaghetti reheats beautifully so you can make it entirely in advance.  You have two different options when it comes to making in advance, you can either reheat the spaghetti in a skillet, or transfer to a 9×13 baking dish then bake.

1. ASSEMBLE AND REHEAT IN SKILLET 

  • Take care that your noodles are cooked al dente and are rinsed in cold water so they donโ€™t keep cooking.
  • Assemble sauce and pasta according to recipe directions.
  • Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate.
  • When ready to eat, heat individual servings in the microwave or desired amount gently on the stove with a splash of milk or heavy cream to thin.

2. ASSEMBLE THEN BAKE

  • Take care that your noodles are cooked al dente and are rinsed in cold water so they donโ€™t keep cooking.
  • Assemble sauce and pasta according to recipe directions.
  • Transfer to a lightly greased 9×13 baking dish, cover with an additional 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and tightly cover with foil.
  • Refrigerate Chicken Spaghetti for up to two days.
  • When ready to eat, bake (uncovered) for 35-45 minutes or until heated through.  

Easy Chicken Spaghetti Recipe tips

  • Donโ€™t overcook pasta for Baked Chicken Spaghetti.  If youโ€™re going to make Baked Chicken Spaghetti, it is extra important not to overcook the spaghetti because it will continue to cook in the oven.  I recommend testing your pasta about 2 or 3 minutes before the box recommends โ€“ pasta should be al denteโ€“ meaning it should still be a little firm in the center/ have a โ€œbiteโ€ to it.  
  • Stop pasta from cooking.  If your pasta is done before your sauce, then rinse in cool water to prevent it from continuing to cook.  Donโ€™t worry about the pasta being cold because the sauce will warm it right up once combined.
  • Prevent pasta from clumping.  If youโ€™re not using the cooked spaghetti right away, toss it with a little olive oil.  This will prevent it from sticking together.
  • Cook flour for two minutes.  Two minutes can seem like a long time but donโ€™t cut it short โ€“ you want to make sure to cook out the raw flour taste. 
  • Thin sauce if needed.  Chicken Spaghetti Sauce can become too thick if its simmered at too high of heat or for too long.  But donโ€™t worry, itโ€™s SO easy to fix!  Simply stir in a little reserved pasta water after you combine it with the spaghetti until it reaches desired consistency.

Best Chicken Spaghetti Recipe variations

This Chicken Spaghetti is delicious in its classic cheesiness or you can use the recipe as a base to customize it.  Here are a few ideas:

  • Swap protein.  I know this is CHICKEN Spaghetti, but that doesnโ€™t mean you canโ€™t turn it into turkey, beef, ham or sausage spaghetti!   Crispy, salty bacon also pairs beautifully with this creamy sauce โ€“ with or without chicken.
  • Skip the protein.  You can instantly turn this chicken spaghetti into a side dish or โ€œMeatless Mondayโ€ dinner by omitting the chicken.
  • Substitute cheeses.  You can use other favorite melting cheeses:  mozzarella, Asiago, Gouda, smoked cheddar, Monterrey, etc.
  • Add veggies.  Chicken Spaghetti is a blank canvas for any veggies you want to include.  It can the best โ€œclean out the fridgeโ€ meal ever!  Try it with petite peas, bell peppers, zucchini, asparagus, carrots, mushrooms, spinach, artichokes, etc.  You will want to steam, roast or boil the veggies before adding to the pasta. 
  • Make casserole gluten-free.  To make this Chicken Spaghetti recipe gluten free, use your favorite gluten free pasta and gluten free flour.

How to serve this Simple Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

You can serve the Chicken Spaghetti straight out of the skillet (which is what I usually do), or if you want to make it extra cheesy, then you can make Baked Chicken Spaghetti.  To make Baked Chicken Spaghetti:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
  • Transfer combined spaghetti to prepared baking dish.
  • Evenly top spaghetti with 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

How to store Easy Chicken Spaghetti

Leftover chicken spaghetti should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. When stored correctly, chicken spaghetti will last up to 5 days then should be frozen after that (freezer instructions to follow).

Can you freeze Chicken Spaghetti?

Yes!  Chicken Spaghetti freezes exceptionally well either before its baked for a prep-ahead freezer meal or you can also freeze the leftovers.  For best results, I recommend freezing the chicken spaghetti before its baked so the pasta doesnโ€™t cook twice. Simply transfer your prepared chicken spaghetti to a freezer safe baking dish, top with cheese, cover and freeze!  You could even portion it out into individual portions then freeze.

For best results and more al dente pasta, I recommend freezing Chicken Spaghetti directly from the skillet before its baked.  

  • Take care to cook pasta al dente.
  • Combine Chicken Spaghetti according to recipe directions in a skillet.
  • Transfer to a freezer safe, lightly greased baking dish and let cool completely.
  • Wrap casserole dish all the way around with 2 layers of plastic wrap.
  • Cover the plastic wrap with one layer of aluminum foil.
  • Label Chicken Spaghetti.
  • Freeze for up to 3 months.

HOW TO FREEZE BAKED CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

This scenario would be for when you have leftover chicken spaghetti that youโ€™ve decided to bake.

  • Make sure chicken spaghetti is in a freezer safe baking container or transfer it to one.
  • Cover chicken spaghetti casserole with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill completely before freezing (this will prevent an unpleasant texture).
  • Cover casserole tightly with a second layer of plastic wrap all the way around the dish followed by one layer of aluminum foil.
  • Label Chicken Spaghetti.
  • Freeze for up to 3 months.

How to cook this Chicken Spaghetti Recipe from frozen

  • You can either let chicken spaghetti thaw overnight in the refrigerator and bake per recipe instructions, adding an additional 10 minutes baking time or bake from frozen.
  • Note: Do NOT bake chicken spaghetti directly from frozen if using a glass baking dish – it will likely crack! 

TO BAKE FROM FROZEN:

  • Remove plastic wrap from casserole and cover tightly with foil.
  • Bake covered at 350 degrees F for one hour.
  • Uncover and bake an addition 10-15 minutes or until hot in the center.

    Would fresh parsley and basil work for this recipe? If so, how much of each do you recommend?

    • Jen says

      Yes! I would start with 1 tablespoon then add more to taste.

      • Sonya says

        Thank you! I just made this and it’s delicious even though I accidentally grabbed the thyme jar instead of the oregano jar and I put a half a teaspoon in before I realized what I had done. It’s delicious just the same, haha

        • Jen says

          LOL! I’m so glad it was still a hit!

  2. Bill McGuire says

    Hey, Jennifer. I just made the Chicken Spaghetti recipe. Pretty darned good. I have plenty to take over to friends tomorrow night. She is 92 and with her husband, deceased, they owned a gourmet restaurant where I worked as a waiter for 3 yrs prior to going into the Army. Tom worked in the kitchen, and he still looks in on her daily. He is like a big, older brother to me, so I know they will enjoy this like I am now. Peace. Bill McGuire, College Station, TX

    • Jen says

      You are so thoughtful to take leftovers to dear friends! It sounds like you have a special bond. God bless you!

  3. Lindsay says

    My pickiest eater said, โ€œthis is good!โ€ And had seconds. Thanks for another great recipe!

    • Jen says

      Yay! Thank you so much Lindsay! So happy to hear that even picky eaters approve this recipe! ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Kelsi says

    Wow this was genuinely the best chicken spaghetti ive ever had! The seasonings went together perfectly Changes i made: added half an onion, a bell pepper, added all the spices together when i added the garlic to toast them, and just used 3 cups of sharp cheddar cheese instead of parmesan. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    • Jen says

      Thank you Kelsi! I am so happy that you enjoyed it!!

  5. B says

    This is really good. I make the full recipe and put half unbaked portion in the freezer for another day. I t doesnโ€™t seem to be as creamy as when it is first put together. How can I remedy that?

    • Jen says

      I’m so glad you like it! To help bring back some of the creaminess, leave the dish in the fridge overnight to thaw slowly. Enjoy!

  6. B says

    Delicious. Any thoughts on making it creamier after freezing unbaked portion?

    • Jen says

      I would thaw it overnight in the fridge, which will allow it to defrost slower. This will hopefully restore some of the creaminess! Hope this helps:)

  7. Michelle says

    This fit the bill for a cool fall evening. Pure comfort food. Thank you for sharing!

    • Jen says

      I’m so glad it was just the thing for a chilly day!

  8. JM says

    Excellent Recipe! I shouldโ€™ve used my 4.5qt deep sautรฉ pan instead of my 3qt which was not large enough so we placed the spaghetti on our plate then spooned the chicken sauce over it and mixed it together, still excellent! This is the 3rd recipe Iโ€™ve made of yours and it was delicious as well! As my hubby is on a low sodium diet I left out the additional bouillon cube and in lieu of grocery store rotisserie I baked my own unseasoned chicken thighs and stripped the meat. It was still very well seasoned and flavorful. The 3 cups of low sodium Better than Bouillon I used offered enough salt for our palette. Iโ€™m enjoying this site very much!

    • Jen says

      I’m so glad you have been enjoying the recipes! Happy to hear this one was a hit!
