Ingredients:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Preparation:

  2. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside. In the same pot, use the remaining broth to boil the spaghetti pasta according to the package directions.
  3. Drain the cooked pasta and set it aside without rinsing.
  4. In the now empty pot, melt the butter and sauté the chopped onion and bell pepper until tender.
  5. Add the Rotel tomatoes, cream of chicken soup, cooked chicken (cut into bite-size pieces), and spaghetti to the sautéed onion mixture, one at a time. Gently mix everything together.
  6. Introduce the Velveeta cheese and stir until it melts completely, ensuring a thorough mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat the mixture until the cheese is thoroughly melted, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
