Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9"x13" baking dish with cooking spray.

Step 2

Boil the spaghetti in a pot of salted water according to the package directions.

Step 3

Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for 3-4 minutes.

Slowly add the chicken broth and then the half and half to the pan, whisking the whole time.

Step 7

Bring the sauce mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes or until it has just thickened.

Step 8

Take the sauce off the heat, and mix in the parmesan cheese, cream cheese and Italian seasoning. Stir until well blended and cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
