This was really good. I did make a few changes to use what I had on hand. I used canned tomatoes with the juice, taco seasoning(same amount as other spices), and used chicken broth(as per other reviewers advice). Also, I doubled everything, but the chicken, which I halved. It was just enough chicken to make it interesting. This was really good, and I plan on adding it to our menu. Thanks!!!

I liked the flavor of the sauce very much, but I think next time I would probably cook the spaghetti part way before putting it in the pan, it was way more than "al dente". I didn't make the chicken, and I used whole wheat pasta, but I would probably try this again with the modification above.

I also subbed chicken stock for water and used one can of Rotel w/ chilies and one with lime juice and cilantro in place of the chopped romas. Added a nice little kick without being too spicy for the 8 year old. Added a few chopped black olives as well. Served it over a little fat free refried beans and used less chicken to keep it light and still have plenty of protein. Used whole wheat pasta as well!

Rating this recipe high for originality, but I think I messed it up. My pan was wayyyy too small and therefore I had to keep adding water for the noodles to cook. I used italian flavored canned stewed tomatoes with onions as well. It took twice as long to cook in my stupid pot! :P I think it would have been wonderful in a giant pan, once I get one I will try it again!

As written, I thought this was very very bland. I added the juice of half a lime, some freshly ground black pepper, some red pepper flakes, and some fresh cilantro. The end result was absolutely delicious!

So good! Great texture. I added a few extras to meet my families needs and used rotel instead of romas. I added a little extra water, corn, broccoli, black beans and garlic. I also used cooked mesquite chicken (frozen from Sam's)instead of plain to make cooking time less. All 6 of us loved it. I served it with rye bread.

Thanks for the delicious recipe, we thought it was great. The only changes I made were to omit the onions and instead add some chopped green peppers and a little garlic. My husband already had some of the leftovers as a late evening snack (and he never eats leftovers)! We didn't cook it too long, make sure the noodles are al dente, the little bit of chew in the noodles really tops the dish off. Thanks again!

It was OK. I thought it was a little bland. We ate it, but I don't think we'll have it again.

This was so easy to make and delicious. A nice change from everyday spaghetti. The only change I made was using 2 cans of diced tomatoes with peppers instead of the Roma tomatoes, only because that is what I had on hand.The spices gave it such a unique flavor. We will definetly be making this again.Thanks.

Fast, easy, and delicious! I did need to add more water near the end, and I used two chicken boullion cubes to enhance the flavor. I also tossed in some cilantro which was a delicious and colorful addition. You definitely want the cheese with this one - it's good without it, but even better with! I will be making this one again.

I loved this recipes. I liked the fact that I could make it in my electric skillet, no other pans to clean up. I did not have Roma tomatos, so I substituted this will a can of small dices tomatos, plus I added a can of diced tomatos with green chiles. This gave the recipes and extra kick! Plus the extra liquid helped to cook the spaghetti. I also added some green and red bell peppers - not much, but just enough to add some flavor. I will definately make again.... Nice alternative to regular spaghetti! Thanks....

One of my girls wanted spaghetti and one wanted Mexican food. I typed Mexican Spaghetti in to the search box and voila! This recipe will become one of those that you make more than once a month! Thank you!

Everybody enjoyed this and everybody had seconds. This is very good and as another reviewer says "a wonderful change from traditional spaghetti.” The only changes I made were to use Chicken Broth in lieu of water and added some fresh cilantro. I will definitely make this again. I think that it would be great as a potluck dish due to the amount it makes.

I cooked the chicken seperately, as I don't remember fideo having chicken in it. I added extra broth so that it is more like soup. Loved it!

I had a hard time getting everything to even fit in the pan (a 12 inch skillet no less), even with the noodles broken. It definitely needs more than 1 1/2 cups of water to cook... maybe more like 2 1/2. I used six roma tomatoes instead of 5. I also think this would benefit from cilantro. Overall this was kind of so-so, but the cheese on top was nice.
