This recipe for Chicken Tetrazzini is a twist on the classic. I switched out the peas for spinach leaves since my family hates peas. It’s an easy dish to make–especially if you buy a rotisserie chicken from the store instead of cooking an entire chicken by yourself. Store-bought rotisserie chickens are usually pretty cheap and quite tasty.”
