Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook spaghetti until al dente and drain.
Mix shredded chicken, soups, sour cream, and half of the cheese in a large bowl.
Season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Fold in spaghetti and optional bell peppers or pimentos.
Transfer mixture to a greased baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cheese evenly on top.
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until bubbly and golden. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For extra creaminess, add a little milk or chicken broth to the sauce.
Layering cheese in the sauce and on top creates perfect meltiness.
Resting before serving helps maintain shape and flavor.
