Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 stalks Celery, chopped
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) Cream of mushroom soup
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 cup Water
- 2 cups Cooked white rice
- 2 cups Chow mein noodles
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and chopped celery to the skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender.
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup, soy sauce, water, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Reduce heat to low and add the cooked rice to the skillet, stirring until everything is evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Top the casserole with the chow mein noodles, spreading them across the surface in an even layer.
Sprinkle the diced green bell pepper evenly over the noodles.
Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10–15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Chow Mein Casserole!
