- 1 (10.5-ounce) can of unsalted cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.5-ounce) can of unsalted cream of mushroom soup

Step 1: Preheat Oven and Prepare Baking Dish
Preheat your oven to 300ºF (150ºC).
Lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray to prevent the casserole from sticking.
Step 2: Cook and Drain Spaghetti
Cook the spaghetti according to the package directions.
Once cooked, drain the spaghetti and set it aside.
This will be combined with the other ingredients later.
Step 3: Mix the Main Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the chopped rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, cottage cheese, cream cheese, chicken broth, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Mix these ingredients well to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Step 4: Combine Spaghetti and Mixture
Stir the cooked spaghetti into the mixture in the large bowl until everything is evenly combined.
You want to ensure that the spaghetti is well-coated with the creamy mixture.
Step 5: Assemble and Top the Casserole
Pour the spaghetti and chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Spread it out evenly.
Top the mixture with grated Parmesan cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and dried parsley to add flavor and create a delicious crust.
Step 6: Bake the Casserole
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
After 45 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy this creamy and flavorful chicken and spaghetti casserole with your favorite side dishes!
