    List of Ingredients




    1 1/2 pound pounds chicken (breasts, thighs or a combination of both)
    8 ounces spaghetti, broken into 3-inch pieces
    3 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese, divided
    2 cans cream of mushroom soup
    1/4 cup diced onion
    1/4 cup finely diced green bell pepper
    1/4 cup canned pimento, drained (one 4-ounce jar)
    1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 3-quart bake dish with cooking spray.

    In a 4-quart saucepan, place the chicken and cover with 4 cups water. Over medium high heat, bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer 20 minutes until chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan but leave the liquid in the pan.

    Return pan to high heat and bring to a boil, add pasta and cook 10 minutes until spaghetti is al dente. Drain and reserve the liquid.

    While pasta cooks, shred cooked chicken and measure out 2 cups meat; discard any skin and bones.

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken, drained pasta and 2 cups of the cheese, then stir in the soup, onion, bell pepper, pimento and paprika. Add 1 cup of the reserved cooking broth.

    Spoon into the bake dish and top with the remaining 1 cup cheese. Bake 45 minutes until cheese is melted and casserole is bubbly.
