The Casserole That Uses Up Everything

Tetrazzini is what happens when a little leftover meat meets noodles, mushrooms, and something creamy. It stretches a half a chicken or the last of the holiday turkey into a pan that feeds the whole table.

Cooks on Pepper reach for these on a Tuesday when the fridge has odds and ends, or the Sunday after a big dinner when nobody wants another plate of plain turkey.

Every recipe here is a full supper in one dish: Chicken Tetrazzini with sour cream and cream of chicken soup, Rich and Creamy Chicken Tetrazzini with Mushrooms and Mozzarella, Crockpot Turkey Tetrazzini for a hands-off day, plus Shrimp Tetrazzini and a Leftover ham tetrazzini.

Quick Tips

  1. 1

    Undercook the pasta

    Boil the spaghetti 2 minutes shy of the package time. It keeps soaking up sauce in the oven and won't turn mushy.

  2. 2

    Cook the mushrooms dry

    Let sliced mushrooms sit in a hot pan 5 to 6 minutes until they brown and the liquid cooks off before adding butter or onion.

  3. 3

    Warm the dairy first

    Let sour cream or cream cheese sit out 20 minutes, or stir it into warm sauce off the heat, so it melts smooth instead of breaking.

  4. 4

    Rest before serving

    Pull the casserole out and let it sit 10 minutes so the sauce sets up and the spoonfuls hold together.
