For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of chili powder or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken mixture. Feel free to substitute the Colby-Monterey Jack cheese with your favorite cheese blend, such as cheddar, pepper jack, or a Mexican blend. If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, you can transfer the spaghetti mixture to a baking dish before topping with cheese and baking. Garnish with fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, or a sprinkle of green onions for a fresh and vibrant finish.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
02
StepBegin by cooking the spaghetti. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook until al dente, about 12 minutes. Drain well.
03
StepWhile the spaghetti is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Introduce the bite-sized chicken pieces and cook until fully cooked, approximately 5 minutes.
04
StepIn the same skillet, combine the cream of mushroom soup and diced tomatoes with green chile peppers with the chicken mixture. Stir well to ensure everything is nicely incorporated.
05
StepAdd the cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing to coat it evenly with the creamy chicken mixture. Sprinkle the shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese over the top.
06
StepTransfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
