Easy Spicy Southern Chicken Spaghetti Recipe:

Ingredients:

16 ounces spaghetti
1 pound chicken tenders
2 tablespoons butter
14 ounces Velveeta cheese
1 cup milk
1 can Rotel diced tomatoes and chilies, ~10 ounces
1 can cream of chicken (mushroom or celery OK) soup, ~10 ounces
2 tablespoons sriracha or hot sauce
1 cup grated cheddar & mozzarella cheese mix
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 cup Panko or bread crumbs
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

2. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, then drain and set aside.

3. Season the chicken tenders with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.

Remove the chicken from the skillet, let it cool slightly, then shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces.

4. In the same skillet, add the Velveeta cheese, milk, Rotel, cream of chicken soup, cumin, and sriracha. Stir until the cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.

5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked pasta, shredded chicken, and the cheese mixture. Mix well to ensure everything is evenly coated.

6. Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle the grated cheese over the top.

7. In a separate bowl, combine the Panko breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the cheese layer.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the dish is bubbling.
