Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

12 oz spaghetti pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
1 cup diced bell peppers (red and green)
1 cup diced onion
2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Method
 

Cook the Spaghetti: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
    Sauté the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the diced chicken and season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and golden brown.
      Add Veggies: Add the diced bell peppers and onion to the skillet with the chicken. Sauté for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Stir in the cherry tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes until they start to soften.
        Make the Cheese Sauce: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Gradually add the cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
          Combine: Add the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing well to coat the pasta with the cheesy sauce. If the mixture seems too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water until you achieve your desired consistency.
            Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately. Enjoy your Ultimate Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti warm and cheesy!
