Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set it aside.
Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, diced onion, garlic powder, frozen peas and carrots, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Add the cooked egg noodles to the mixture and gently stir until the noodles are evenly coated.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese and all of the mozzarella cheese.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the cheese layer.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
