Recipe – Chicken Tetrazzini!

by Jayme on January 3, 2015

I have a new favorite chicken pasta dish – chicken tetrazzini! I made a 9×13 pan on Monday of this week and we’re still eating it! Which means: it makes A LOT, it makes for excellent leftovers since it re-heats well AND we haven’t gotten sick of it. Next time I make it though, I’m definitely making 2 8×8 pans and freezing one for later. Or I’ll invite 8 friends over for dinner!The only real adaption that I made from the original is to not use white wine (I just never have it) and instead use chicken broth. Delicious!

This is a GREAT recipe! I’m one of those Louisiana cooks, so, of course, I added onions, garlic and large chunks of bellpepper (large because I take them out after cooking) – and Tony Casseres (?) …. Devine!!!
I’ve also made a Mexican version with a little Rotel, Mexican Melting Cheese (or Mexican cheese blend if nothing else) and sime chopped jalapenos! Also, fabulous!
Thanks for sharing!

  Sounds awesome! We’re big fans of bell peppers here, so I’d do that too – but I’d leave them in!
