HUNTINGTON CHICKEN: From Cooks.com comes this recipe for a chicken perhaps named for our fair town. 2-1/2 c. uncooked shell pasta, 2 c. cooked, boned & diced chicken, 1 can cream of chicken soup, 1 can chicken broth, 1/2 lb. Velveeta cheese. Prepare pasta, stir in chicken, soup, broth and Velveeta. Season to taste. I like to add onion and celery, seasoning salt and some garlic, but just season to suit your taste. Put in 9”x13” baking dish, top with grated cheese and crushed potato chips or bread crumbs. Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes.
