Equipment

  • 9×13 casserole dish
  • large stockpot

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb spaghetti cooked
  • 1 lb chicken shredded meat, about 1 rotisserie chicken
  • 2 T. unsalted butter
  • 1 lb Velveeta cheese cut into chunks
  • 1 C. milk
  • 1 10 oz original Rotel canned
  • 1 10 oz cream of mushroom soup canned
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste
  • 1 C. shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ C. panko bread crumbs
  • crushed red pepper flakes for serving

Instructions
 

  • Grease a 9×13 casserole dish with crisco and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Combine butter, velveeta, Rotel, cream of mushroom soup, and milk in a large stockpot. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until cheese is melted and smooth.
  • Add chicken, spaghetti, and salt and pepper. Toss to fully combine.
  • Pour the mixture into your prepared casserole dish and level the top with your spoon. Top with shredded cheese and sprinkle with breadcrumbs.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes or until cheese is hot and bubbly.
  • Remove foil and broil for 3-5 minutes until breadcrumbs are lightly browned. Keep a close eye on it at this point. The bread crumbs will burn quickly once they start to brown.
  • Remove from oven and let sit for five minutes.
  • Top with red pepper flakes, to taste, when you serve it.
