Does anyone have a good chicken spaghetti recipe they'd like to share? That sounds sooo good for dinner tonight and I think Will might eat it too.

    This one is good. It is from Gina's Weight Watchers Recipes site:

    Spaghetti with Sauteed Chicken and Grape Tomatoes
    Gina's Weight Watcher Recipes
    Servings: 4 ? Serving Size: 1 1/2 cups ? Calories: 302 Points: 5.5 pts

    • 2 skinless chicken breast halves, diced in 1 inch cubes
    • cooking spray
    • 1/2 tsp each of dried oregano and dries basil
    • kosher salt and fresh pepper
    • 8 oz spaghetti (high fiber or low carb) I used Ronzoni Smart Taste
    • 2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
    • 6 cloves garlic, smashed and coarsely chopped
    • 4 tsp extra virgin olive oil
    • 4 tbsp chopped fresh basil

    Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.

    Season chicken generously with salt, pepper, oregano and basil. Heat a large skillet on high heat. When hot, spray with oil and add chicken. Cook about 3-4 minutes, until no longer pink. Remove chicken and set aside.

    Add pasta and cook according to package directions. Reserve about 1/2 cup pasta water before draining.

    While pasta cooks, add olive oil to skillet on high heat. Add garlic and saut? until golden brown (do not burn). Add tomatoes, salt and pepper and reduce heat to medium-low. Saut? about 4-5 minutes. When pasta is drained, add pasta to tomatoes and toss well. If pasta seems too dry, add some of the reserved pasta water. Add fresh basil and chicken and toss well. Serve and top with good grated cheese.

    the recipe i always had/made growing up is almost identical to pioneer woman's:

    we never used pimentos and i use a little less cheese but otherwise its pretty much the same! oh and i usually used rotisserie chicken to make it easier Smile

    i do not really hae a recipe bu the way i make it is very similar to the PW one Fly posted.  The thngs I do different are, i use chicken breasts and pan grill them rather than boiling a whole chicken. I do not use pimentoes or bell peppers, but i put in a can of diced tomatoes (drained) and a can of mushrooms.
