Chicken Tetrazzini

Quick & easy chicken tetrazzini casserole recipes - This simple and healthy 15 minute meal is baked in the microwave oven using boneless chicken, asparagus, mushrooms, pasta, and a creamy sauce.

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. 🙂
