Chicken Tetrazzini
Chicken Tetrazzini is a big pan of bubbly pasta bake with a lip smacking creamy cheese sauce, and juicy chicken. It’s about as classic as a creamy pasta bake can get!
What is Chicken Tetrazzini?
Chicken Tetrazzini is a pasta bake casserole made with diced up chicken or turkey (or even seafood), mushrooms, and a buttery, cream based sauce. The popular American dish was created by chef Ernest Arbogast in honor of the Italian opera star Luisa Tetrazzini, who debuted at his San Francisco hotel in the 1900’s.
This is a perfect make-ahead casserole! Makes a great freezer meal!! Chicken, spaghetti, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, butter, chicken broth, salt, pepper, garlic, parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese. SO heavenly and delicious. This was gone so fast when I made it for the family! I understand why, it’s filled with all these incredible ingredients!
