Ingredients

  • 1 pound uncooked spaghetti 1 pound broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon margarine
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into strips
  • 1/2 cup chopped onions

  • 2/3 cup milk 2/3 cup water
  • 1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, cubed and softened
  • 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Place spaghetti in the pot, and cook 4 minutes. Mix in the broccoli florets. Continue cooking 4 to 6 minutes, until spaghetti is al dente. Drain, and transfer to a large bowl.
  2. Melt the margarine in a skillet over medium heat, and cook the chicken and onion 5 minutes, until chicken juices run clear and onions are tender.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the soup, milk, water, and cream cheese until smooth. Stir into the skillet with the chicken and onion, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Toss in the bowl with the spaghetti and broccoli to serve.
