    Chicken Tetrazzini - Easy 15 Minute Meal

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    A plate of food with rice and asparagus, with Chicken and Tetrazzini

    Joe made this pasta dish this week, and (after it was prepared), he informed me that I would not like it.

    He said it was bland and lacked spices.

    Terrific, Dear!

    I never had any tetrazzini before, so I didn't know what to expect.

    After his proclamation, I considered going out to eat.

    By myself.

    At a restaurant with jazz music and dim lights and no children's menu.

    Imagine the peace and quiet of a meal alone! Bliss!

    I didn't go. I stayed home and took my chances with the tetrazzini.

    I'm glad I did; it was delicious. The casserole was creamy and cheesy with a noticeable garlic bite.

    I loved it, and I happily ate the leftovers for lunch the next day.

    Because I've never had tetrazzini before, I had nothing to compare it to. Is this similar to the tetrazzini you've had before?

      The original recipe called for green beans, and that seemed like an odd combination. I love asparagus, so that's what I added for some veggie goodness. 🙂

      Ummmm YUM! I'd love to try it but am not sure about the fat content and my stomach combined. Will definitely try something like that though. THanks for posting!

      Hi, I blog at http://Redo101.blogspot.com and today I made chicken tetrazzini. I took a pic with the leftovers, it was quite a photo op - and somehow the pics got erased and never made it to my blog post. And I wanted to ask if I could use your picture, but now I feel really dumb for asking that so please feel free to say no or not to waste your time answering. But you're right - it's yummy, isn't it?! Thanks, Mary

        Don't feel dumb! It's an image from Flickr that you can use as long as you attribute it to the source. At the bottom of my post, there is a photo credit that links to the photographer. 🙂
