  • Add the flour and mix well. Cook for 2-3 minutes.
  • With a whisk mix in chicken broth. Simmer until the sauce has thickened.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Mix in the cubed softened cream cheese.
  • Add in undrained rotel and condensed soup or heavy cream. Mix and cook for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Start to slowly mix in the velvetta cheese or American and shredded colby jack, until you have a smooth cheesy cream sauce.
  • Remove from the heat and mix in the cooked chicken and spaghetti noodles.
  • Pour spaghetti mixture into a 9x13 baking dish.
  • Top with shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
  • Place into the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes until bubbly and the cheese has melted.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool. Top with parsley and enjoy.
