• 1 small onion, diced small
• 3 clove garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups chicken broth

• 1 rotisserie chicken (about 3 cups), shredded and cut into small pieces

• extra parsley for garnish, optional
• salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cook spaghetti according to directions on the package. Drain and add a little oil or butter to prevent it sticking together, set aside.
3. In a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat melt the butter. Add the peppers, onion, and the garlic. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth and allow it to come to a boil while continuing to stir. Whisk in the half and half stirring continuously to prevent sticking. Allow it to come to a boil then stir in the grated parmesan cheese and the parsley, remove from the heat.
4. Stir in the chicken and the pasta. Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes. Top with the sharp cheddar cheese. Bake 3 to 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley.
