• Turn into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle additional 1/4 cup cheddar on top and bake about 30 minutes or until bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Spread 1 tablespoon of butter over a 13 by 9 by 2-inch baking dish. Melt 1 tablespoon each of butter and oil in a deep large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the hot pan and cook until pale golden and just cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a plate to cool slightly. Coarsely shred the chicken into bite-size pieces and into a large bowl.
• Meanwhile, add 1 tablespoon each of butter and oil to the same pan. Add the mushrooms and saute over medium-high heat until the liquid from the mushrooms evaporates and the mushrooms become pale golden, about 12 minutes. Add the onion, garlic, and thyme, and saute until the onion is translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until it evaporates, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mushroom mixture to the bowl with the chicken.
• Melt 3 more tablespoons butter in the same pan over medium-low heat. Add the flour and whisk for 2 minutes. Whisk in the milk, cream, broth, nutmeg, remaining 1 3/4 teaspoons salt, and remaining 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Increase the heat to high. Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer, uncovered, until the sauce thickens slightly, whisking often, about 10 minutes.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the linguine and cook until it is tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, about 9 minutes. Drain. Add the linguine, sauce, peas, and parsley to the chicken mixture. Toss until the sauce coats the pasta and the mixture is well blended.
• Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish. Stir the cheese and breadcrumbs in a small bowl to blend. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the pasta. Dot with the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Bake, uncovered, until golden brown on top and the sauce bubbles, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a skillet melt 2 tablespoons butter and sauté the mushrooms and onions until soft; remove from pan and set aside.
• Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter and stir in 2 tablespoons flour; cook over medium heat for 1 to 2 minutes to make a roux, stirring constantly (the flour should turn a nice golden color, but be careful not to burn).
• Add chicken broth and garlic and cook over low heat for 1 minute.
• Stir in the sherry and 3/4 of the Parmesan cheese; add the sautéed onions/mushrooms and stir until cheese melts, then stir in the cream or half and half.
• Combine the sauce, cooked and cut-up chicken or turkey, and cooked spaghetti noodles in a large bowl, then spread the mixture into a lightly-buttered/oiled large casserole.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until the top begins to brown; combine the remaining Parmesan with the bread crumbs, then sprinkle it over the casserole and bake for 5 minutes longer.
• Adapted from a post by peggy at Gail's Recipe Swap, who got it from Gourmet Magazine.
• Pat-NoCal's notes: This is delicious. I didn't have pimientos so I sauteed some red bell pepper with the mushrooms. Recipe is easily halved. Next time I might use slightly less spaghetti for better sauce coverage.
• nlb's notes to Peggy: I made your Turkey Tetrazzini tonight and it was absolutely wonderful. I only tweaked this recipe a teensy bit by putting one smashed clove of garlic in the sauce, using roasted red peppers, and medium egg noodles instead of spaghetti. I used the Madeira too and it adds a great dimension to this delicious sauce.

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti in the broth. It will absorb most of the broth.
• Saute the pepper and onion in the butter.
• Add the flour, stirring til smooth.
• Gradually add milk, salt & pepper.
• Stir constantly until thickened.
• Add cheeses, cooking til melted.
• Add the turkey and undrained spaghetti. Pour into sprayed casserole (13x9 or whatever size you like).
• Top with bread crumbs.
• Bake at 350F for 30 minutes. Or freeze.

Steps:

• I remember meeting a lovely old couple outside my parents' pub and when they heard I was going to Italy they told me to make sure I cooked turkey tetrazzini. I hadn't a clue what they were talking about and then, by chance, I saw a recipe for chicken tetrazzini in an old Italian cookbook and it's great, really tacky but gorgeous! Here's my version...
• Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Put your porcini mushrooms in a bowl and pour over just enough boiling water to cover them (approx. 150ml/5½fl oz). Put to one side to soak for a few minutes. Heat a saucepan big enough to hold all the ingredients, and pour in a splash of olive oil. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and brown them gently in the oil. Strain the porcini, reserving the soaking water, and add them to the pan with the garlic and fresh mushrooms. Add the wine, with the strained porcini soaking water, and turn the heat down. Simmer gently until the chicken pieces are cooked through and the wine has reduced a little.
• Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in plenty of boiling salted water according to the packet instructions and drain well. Add the cream to the pan of chicken, then bring to the boil and turn the heat off. Season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the drained spaghetti to the creamy chicken sauce and toss well. Add three-quarters of the Parmesan and all of the basil and stir well. Transfer to an ovenproof baking dish or non-stick pan, sprinkle with half the remaining cheese and bake in the oven until golden brown, bubbling and crisp. Divide between your plates, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkle with the rest of the cheese before serving.

Steps:

• Turn on overn to 350 degrees.
• Melt butter in large skillet. Saute mushrooms 5 minutes until liquid has evaporated and add shallots. Saute 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in flour, parsley, salt and pepper.
• Gradually add the cream and 1 cup of the chicken broth, Cook and stir over medium heat until thickened. Add chicken and stir well, if seems too thick (it should be the consistency of a light cream sauce) add more broth. Stir in parmesan cheese.
• Mix spagetti noodles with oil and place in a 2 1/2 quart casserole or lasagna pan. Top with chichen mixture. Bake covered for 40 minutes,.
• Remove cover and top with 1/2 cup parmesan cheese. Bake an additional 20-30 minutes until hot and bubbly.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake squash in the preheated oven until easily pierced with a knife, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Saute chicken in the pan with 1 tablespoon garlic and 1 teaspoon basil until browned and no longer pink, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Remove squash from the oven and cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Scrape insides of squash into strands with a fork and transfer to a bowl. Discard skins.
• Mix remaining olive oil, garlic, basil, dried onion, salt, and white pepper together in a bowl.
• Pour half-and-half and remaining butter into a Dutch oven and heat over medium heat. Stir in soup. Add the seasoning mixture and stir. Stir in chicken.
• Ladle a bit of the sauce from the pot to cover the bottom of a baking dish. Put the spaghetti squash on top of the sauce and pour the remaining sauce and chicken on top. Stir to combine. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over it.
• Bake in the preheated oven, uncovered, until cheese is melted, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Boil chicken until tender, cool, debone, and cut into pieces. Set aside. Reserve broth.
• Cook spaghetti in broth until tender; drain. (NOTE: If you're using leftover chicken or turkey you can cook the spaghetti in purchased chicken broth. The broth adds a lot of flavor, but it's optional. If you don't have it, just cook the spaghetti in salted water.).
• Place drained spaghetti in a very large bowl. Add cooked chicken.
• In a skillet saute the pepper in butter. Add mushrooms and saute a few minutes more. Add to spaghetti along with remaining ingredients except the parmesan. Mix it well.
• Put in a greased 9 x 13" casserole dish, and what's left in a second smaller greased casserole (this makes a lot. Don't worry, it freezes well and the leftovers taste even better the next day).
• At this point you can cook both casseroles, or cover one and place in the freezer to enjoy later.
• When you're ready to cook the casserole, sprinkle the top with parmesan cheese and bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is lightly browned and bubbly.
• REMEMBER: Don't add parmesan until baking time if you're freezing casseroles.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil and cook the pasta until just shy of al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package directs. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat, and add the mushrooms. Season lightly with salt, and cook, stirring only occasionally, until the mushrooms have released their liquid and have started to brown deeply, 8 to 11 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the flour and curry powder, if using. Stir well, until the flour and the mushrooms are evenly combined and the flour is evenly moistened, about 1 minute. Whisk in the white wine, and let it come to a boil, whisking constantly. Let the wine bubble to reduce slightly, 2 minutes. Whisk in the chicken stock, and let it come to a boil. Cook until it thickens noticeably, about 5 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low. Whisk in the chunks of cream cheese (don't worry if the cream cheese appears curdled), then fold in the turkey, peas and the cheeses. Season generously with black pepper. Add the drained pasta and toss with tongs to combine. Taste and add salt if necessary.
• Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in a small bowl in the microwave, and toss it together with the panko and the almonds. Sprinkle the panko-almond mixture all over the top of the pasta, and bake until bubbly and browned on top, about 25 minutes. Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. It will be very creamy at first but will firm up as it cools.

Steps:

• In a saucepam combine bouillon cubes and hot water.Cook over low heat until cubes dissolve.
• Boil the spaghetti in the bouillon until cooked. Set aside.
• In another saucepan melt the butter. Add the flour, salt, pepper and cayenne. Blend thoroughly.
• Pour in the milk. Add the sour cream, cottage cheese, chicken, mushroom and parsley.
• Mix thoroughly, and bring to a boil.
• Add the spaghetti.
• Pour the mixture into a large baking dish. Top with grated cheese.
• Bake at 350°F for approx 40 minutes, until top is golden brown.
