Rees Chicken Spaghetti Recipes

STOVETOP CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Cook the pasta in lightly salted water in conjunction with the package instructions until not quite al dente and still quite chewy. Drain and set aside, reserving 3 cups of the pasta water.
• Place a large saucepan over high heat and add 2 tablespoons butter. Add the chicken and cook until browned and almost cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place a skillet over medium heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter has melted, add the panko and 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley. Season with salt and pepper, then toss and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Add the bell pepper and onion to the pan with the chicken and cook until they have slightly softened, about a minute, then add the pimientos and stir. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cream of mushroom soup, pasta water and milk, then bring to a simmer. Add the Worcestershire sauce, remaining 2 teaspoons dried parsley, cayenne and seasoned salt to taste, followed by the cheeses, a handful at a time. Stir until completely incorporated. Add the frozen peas followed by the cooked pasta, then stir and cook until the pasta is perfectly cooked, a couple of minutes. Add salt and pepper, stir again, then sprinkle the toasted parsley breadcrumbs over the top.

SPICY CHICKEN SPAGHETTI

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with 2 pieces of foil.
• Put the chicken in a large pan, season with salt and pepper and cover with water. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 45 minutes. Remove the chicken and let cool, then shred the meat, discarding the skin and bones. Save the broth for cooking the spaghetti.
• Remove the sausage from the casings and put into a large skillet with the olive oil. Cook over medium heat, breaking up the sausage meat into small pieces, until it is no longer pink, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Add the mushrooms to the skillet. When they give up their liquid, add the green peppers and sundried tomatoes, then cook until just beginning to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove and set aside on top of the sausage. Reserve the oil in the skillet.
• Bring the reserved chicken broth back to a boil. Cook the spaghetti in the broth until al dente according to the package instructions, then drain, reserving the broth.
• If there is less than 2 tablespoons oil/fat in the skillet, add some olive oil to make 2 tablespoons. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute over medium heat. Whisk in 1 1/2 cups of the reserved chicken broth. When it starts to thicken, after about 5 minutes, add the half-and-half. If it is too thick, thin with some more broth. Turn off the heat and add the basil and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan; season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chicken, sausage and vegetables. Stir in the spaghetti.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan on top and cover with aluminum foil. Cook the casserole immediately, or let cool completely, then freeze.
• If cooking right away, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cook for 25 minutes, then uncover the baking dish and cook until heated through, an additional 20 minutes.
• To cook from frozen: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Cook the frozen casserole for 2 hours, then raise the temperature to 375 degrees F, uncover and cook until heated through, 15 minutes more.
• Serve with salad and French bread.
