Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Begin by gathering all your ingredients for the Creamy Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti Casserole. Ensure you have 2 cups of cooked spaghetti, 2 cups of cooked shredded chicken, and the various canned soups ready. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it's perfectly heated when your casserole is ready.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked spaghetti and shredded chicken. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently fold the ingredients together, ensuring the noodles are evenly mixed with the chicken.
  3. Add the cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soups to the bowl with your spaghetti and chicken. Then, blend in the sour cream and milk until everything is combined into a smooth mixture.
  4. Sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper into the bowl. Stir well to incorporate the spices throughout the creamy base.
  5. Pour the creamy mixture into a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish. Spread it out evenly using the spatula.
  6. If you’re using breadcrumbs and paprika, sprinkle them generously over the top of your casserole now.
  7. Place your casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. You'll know it’s ready when the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling.
  8. After baking, carefully remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes.

Notes

Adjust the ratio of soups and sour cream to taste; too much can overwhelm the noodle’s flavor, while too little may dry it out.
