How to Make Easy Cheesy Chicken Fettuccine

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 2 1/2-quart baking dish.
  2. Cook 1 pound fettuccine in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain well and set aside.
  3. While pasta cooks, melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 8 ounces sliced mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in 10.75 ounces cream of mushroom soup, 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup heavy cream, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, and 1 teaspoon garlic powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until cream cheese is melted and sauce is smooth.
  5. Add 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese to the sauce. Stir until melted and combined.
  6. Add the cooked fettuccine to the sauce and stir to coat evenly.
  7. Add 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (or turkey) to the pasta mixture.
  8. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
  9. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons melted butter, and 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Sprinkle evenly over the chicken mixture.
  10. Cover the baking dish and bake for 25 minutes.
  11. Uncover and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
