Spicy Southern Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti Casserole

Ingredients


  • 12 oz spaghetti, cooked al dente
    3 cups cooked chicken, shredded
    1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
    1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
    1 can (10 oz) Rotel diced tomatoes & green chilies (drained a little)
    1 small onion, finely chopped
    1/2 green bell pepper, finely chopped
    2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
    1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
    1/2 cup chicken broth (as needed for creaminess)
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1 tsp paprika
    1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for extra heat)
    Salt & black pepper to taste

Instructions


  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13 baking dish.
    In a large bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, Rotel, onion, bell pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
    Stir in shredded chicken, cooked spaghetti, 1 1/2 cups cheddar, and Monterey Jack cheese. Add chicken broth if mixture feels too thick.
    Pour everything into the prepared baking dish.
    Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup cheddar cheese evenly on top.
    Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, until hot and bubbly with a golden cheesy top.
    Let it rest 5 minutes before serving.

Creamy, cheesy, a little spicy — true Southern comfort on a plate!
