Chicken Tetrazini

Good Friday I made Chicken Tetrazini for dinner.

I began by cooking 2 chicken breasts and then cutting them into bite size pieces.


I then broke 8 ounces of spaghetti into small pieces and then cooked them.


I then mixed together heavy cream, chicken broth, flour and salt and pepper.  I then cooked it over low heat until it was bubbling, stirring it constantly.



I then added the chicken and a can of sliced mushrooms to the sauce.

I cooked it until it was warmed through and then added the cooked spaghetti and mixed until thoroughly combined.  I then poured the mixture into a sprayed 9x13 glass baking dish and cooked it at around 350* for 45 minutes.




Here is my husband's completed plate:

So, here is the overall tally:

Chicken Tetrazini- A hit (my husband loved it, I didn't eat any of it)

I ate pizza instead:


My husband got out of work early on Good Friday, so we went to a cupcakery and on the way home he insisted that we stop at a new pizzeria to pick up a take-out menu.  He went in to just get a take-out menu and ended up ordering a pizza.  I ate 2 pieces of the pizza and was full.  My husband ate more than 2 pieces of pizza and still ate some chicken tetrazini :)
