Ingredients
- 12 ounces egg noodles (spinach or green-colored)
- 3 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1.5 cups milk
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cups bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter (melted)

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish and set aside.
Cook the spinach or green egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen peas, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese into the soup mixture.
Add the cooked noodles to the mixture and gently fold to coat everything evenly.
Transfer the noodle-chicken mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.
Mix the bread crumbs with the melted butter in a small bowl, then sprinkle the buttered crumbs evenly over the cheese layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5–10 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
