Blue Ribbon Recipe by

This is a family favorite that has been around for a long time. I've changed this and that and added a few things. It seems like each time I make it, I change something else. I usually double it so there are leftovers as it's always better the next day. It is quite versatile.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

This chicken tetrazzini is a comforting dish that will disappear very quickly when serving it to your family. You can use any type of cooked chicken you prefer. We opted for chicken thighs. Chicken is mixed with angel hair pasta and tossed in a creamy, buttery, and garlicky white sauce to create a hearty casserole. It's a filling chicken dinner for a weeknight meal.
