Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 10.5 ounces Cream of mushroom soup
- 10.5 ounces Cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Celery, chopped
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup Canned bean sprouts, drained
- 2 cups Chow mein noodles
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Optional: Green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Break it into small crumbles with a wooden spoon as it cooks. Once fully cooked, drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the beef. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the soy sauce, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, and chicken broth. Mix well until smooth and combined.
Add the chopped celery, diced green bell pepper, and drained bean sprouts to the mixture. Stir until evenly incorporated.
Season the mixture with black pepper and salt. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
Sprinkle the chow mein noodles evenly over the top of the mixture to form a crispy topping.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and the noodles are crispy and golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the hotdish rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Optional: Garnish with sliced green onions for added freshness and flavor.
