Chicken Tetrazzini

I got this recipe from Brad's grandma, she makes it all the time and it is delicious.  I don't make it very often at all, maybe only once, just because it's not terribly healthy.  But hey, every once in a while wouldn't hurt. :)

Chicken Tetrazzini

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 cups whipping cream
2 cups chicken broth
4 cups diced cooked chicken
13oz Linguine
Parmesan cheese

Cook linguine according to directions.  Drain and set aside.  Dice or cut chicken into bite-sized pieces.  In a separate pan, melt butter over low heat.  Add flour, salt, and pepper.  When bubbling, slowly add whipping cream and chicken broth. Stir constantly until thickened.  Combine linguine, sauce, 1/4 to 1/2 cup Parmesan, and chicken in a 1 qt. casserole dish.  Sprinkle lightly with additional Parmesan.  Bake 20 minutes covered at 350 degrees.  Remove cover and continue baking 10 more minutes.  Remove from oven and serve with additional Parmesan at the table.

Yum, yum, this is making me want to make it again.
