Ingredients

1 pound spaghetti
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small yellow onion, diced
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves, cut into bite-size pieces, or more to taste
1 (10.75 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes with green chile peppers
½ cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Heat olive oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium heat; cook and stir garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add onion; cook and stir until onion begins to soften, about 2 minutes. Add chicken; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes.
Mix cream of mushroom soup and diced tomatoes with green chile peppers into chicken mixture. Mix spaghetti into chicken mixture and top with Colby-Monterey Jack cheese.
Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake until cheese is melted and slightly brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
