Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, then cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft, about 4-5 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
Stir in the cooked shredded chicken, sautéed onion, frozen peas, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix to combine.
Add the cooked noodles to the mixture and gently toss until evenly coated with the sauce.
Transfer the noodle mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
Top the casserole with the remaining shredded cheddar cheese. If using breadcrumbs, sprinkle them evenly on top for added crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your warm, comforting Chicken and Noodle Casserole!
