Creamy Cilantro Chicken Spaghetti Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add chicken, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cover, reduce heat to a gentle boil, and cook until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken and set aside until cool enough to handle, then chop into bite-sized pieces. Leave broth in the pot.
• Bring broth back to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling broth, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain spaghetti; do not rinse. Discard broth.
• Melt butter in the same pot. Add onion and bell pepper; saute until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add diced tomatoes and chiles, condensed chicken soup, condensed mushroom soup, chicken, and spaghetti, one ingredient at a time, gently mixing after each addition.
• Add Cheddar cheese and stir together, mixing well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat until cheese is thoroughly melted, stirring occasionally to keep from scorching.

Steps:

• Pat chicken breasts dry and sprinkle with 1/2 the Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken to the very hot oil and cook, turning occasionally, until juices run clear when chicken is pricked with a fork and both sides are browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside, reserving drippings in the skillet.
• Add green onions and bell pepper to the drippings in the skillet. Cook until tender, about 1 minute. Add chicken broth and wine and bring to a boil, about 5 minutes. Simmer until juices have reduced to about 3/4 cup, about 5 minutes more. Add cream and continue to simmer to reduce slightly, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cilantro, plus remaining Cajun seasoning. Season with salt and pepper.
• Add chicken to the skillet, cover, and cook until heated through, about 3 minutes more.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan of salted boiling water add spaghetti and cook until al dente.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook stirring occasionally for 3 to 5 minutes or until the onion is soft.
• Add the tomatoes, cilantro, broth and salt and simmer 2 minutes. Drain pasta, add to saucepan and cook tossing until combined well. Transfer to a warm serving platter and serve hot.

Steps:

• Cook spaghetti as directed on package, omitting salt.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add onions, peppers, garlic and cumin; cook and stir 1 min. Add half the chicken; cook 2 min. or until lightly browned, stirring frequently. Remove from skillet. Add remaining chicken to skillet; cook and stir 2 min. or until lightly browned. Return cooked chicken/vegetable mixture to skillet; mix well.
• Drain spaghetti, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Mix reserved water with cream cheese and bouillon in small bowl until blended. Add to chicken along with the lime zest; mix well. Cover; cook on low heat 5 to 8 min. or until chicken is done. Stir in spaghetti, lime juice and cilantro; cook, uncovered, 1 min. or until heated through, stirring frequently. Add shredded cheese; stir until melted.
