Ingredients

  • 8 chicken tenderloins
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup fresh sliced mushrooms
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 (8 ounce) package uncooked spaghetti
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup half-and-half
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  2. Cook the spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  3. In a large saucepan, melt the butter or margarine and blend in flour. Gradually stir in the chicken broth and half-and-half.
