Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, frozen peas, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Add the cooked noodles to the bowl and gently fold them into the mixture until evenly coated.
Transfer the noodle and chicken mixture to the prepared casserole dish, spreading it into an even layer.
In a smaller bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the melted butter until coated. Sprinkle this over the top of the casserole.
Top the casserole with the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
