Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk, frozen mixed vegetables, 1 1/2 cups of cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated.
Add the cooked egg noodles to the bowl and gently stir to coat the noodles in the mixture.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter. Sprinkle this mixture over the casserole, ensuring an even layer.
Top the breadcrumb layer with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
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 the casserole sit for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
