2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts substitute with rotisserie chicken for quicker prep!

1 cup fresh bell peppers feel free to use mixed bell peppers for a vibrant twist.
1 cup green onions substitute with chopped chives if preferred.

1 teaspoon paprika use smoked paprika for a deeper flavor.
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper adjust according to your heat preference!
1 teaspoon garlic powder fresh minced garlic can be used for a more robust taste.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a large casserole dish.
Cook the chicken in a large pot over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
Boil a large pot of salted water, add the spaghetti, and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, cooked spaghetti, cream of chicken soup, bell peppers, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and half of the cheddar cheese.
Transfer mixture to the greased casserole dish, spread evenly, and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
Let it rest for 5 minutes after baking, then garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
