One Pot Chicken Tetrazzini

Categories Easy Recipes, Gluten Free, Main Course

I love this one pot chicken tetrazzini! It’s creamy, comforting and so flavorful. My mom used to make tetrazzini when I was growing up so it reminds me of childhood.

My mom used leftover turkey in this dish, which is actually what I do too with leftover turkey but chicken is more mainstream so I have this recipe listed as chicken tetrazzini but it is great with both.

Because this is a one pot meal it’s really quick and easy to make and perfect for a weeknight dinner. The leftovers, (which are actually pictured in this post, because the sun goes down too early this time of year to get a decent picture), the leftovers reheat and taste delicious too!
