Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by boiling a large pot of water over high heat. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions, typically around 8-10 minutes until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Once done, drain the pasta in a colander and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat one tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables become soft and slightly browned.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in one can of cream of chicken soup along with one cup of sour cream. Add half a teaspoon of garlic powder and onion powder, mixing well for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the cooked, shredded chicken and half a cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese into the sauce. Stir continuously until the cheese is completely melted.
- Gently add the drained spaghetti into the skillet, tossing everything together until the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy sauce. Continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- If you prefer a baked version, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the spaghetti mixture into a greased baking dish. Top with the remaining Monterey Jack and cheddar cheese, then bake for 20-25 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
