How To Make Chicken Spaghetti
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

- To prepare alfredo sauce, place butter and cream cheese into a large skillet over medium heat. Add heavy whipping cream and dressing packet. Stir until melted, whisk until smooth. Whisk in Parmesan cheese and stir until thickened, takes a few minutes. When sauce has thickened, remove from heat and set aside.

Fresh grated Parmesan melts nicely as opposed the the shaved or shredded.
Homemade Alfredo Sauce
Use this alfredo sauce over your favorite cooked pasta noodles. It’s delicious!
Can I Use Rotisserie Chicken Instead of Cook My Own?
Yes, if you don’t want to cook your own chicken breast cubes, rotisserie chicken works just fine. Don’t add the Italian Dressing seasoning to the Rotisserie chicken.
Be sure to not overcook the spaghetti noodles. I undercook them by 1 minute since they’re baked too.
Transfer pasta in a 9 x 13 inch baking dish to get ready to bake.
Top with shredded Mozzarella cheese. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until slightly golden brown around edges.
Remove baked pasta and let cool for a few minutes before cutting into squares.
How To Serve this Baked Chicken Spaghetti Recipe
Serve the spaghetti squares with a side salad and garlic bread. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. Re-heat in microwave as needed.

This was simple and delicious. I did make a few changes. I used Tyson Grilled Chicken Strips cubed in place of the raw breasts-I didn’t have raw on hand. I also added 3 T of minced onion, 3 T of minced bell peppers, and 2 minced garlic cloves to the skillet with the chicken and cooked about 5 minutes. I also had a handful of fresh baby spinach and about 1 c shredded carrots that needed using, so I tossed these into the pot to cook with the pasts. It was awesome and the easiest sauce recipe ever. Thanks for this.
My family loved this dish. I got so many compliments. It was really good and a great dish for the fall. I didn’t have Italian dressing seasoning so I used a bit of garlic salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. I may try to sneak some veggies in there next time
My husband said this is the best thing I have ever made! I loved how easy it was to make and the alfredo sauce was better than any others I have tried! Husband and Kid approved!
This was extremely yummy! I did everything exactly as you listed except I did use the 1/3 lower fat cream cheese, but other than that I followed your recipe. I was surprised by how little ingredients were used for the alfredo sauce. I’m used to making a bĂ©chamel with the flour and butter and whisking for no lumps. This was far easier and, with that salad dressing packet, extremely tasty! I also added broccoli into the dish before putting it into the oven. The kids, husband, and I all loved it! Will definitely be making this again! Thank you for, yet again, a delicious, kid-friendly recipe!
Is there any substitute for the italian dressing packet as where i come from,there is none. I don’t even know what it is. Is it like a salad dressing or a soup powder?
Hi Chamila, you can leave it out. I would substitute with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper and 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning 🙂
This was delicious! Do you think I can freeze the chicken and the sauce?
I haven’t tried freezing it yet, but I’m guessing it’d be just fine.
Yum! This looks SO delish! Can’t wait to try!
