Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 can (10 ounces) Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 small (diced) onion
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic
- 8 ounces wide egg noodles
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish lightly with cooking spray or a small amount of olive oil.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula. Drain excess grease if necessary.
Stir in the Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Cook for 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to combine, then remove from heat.
In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well.
Layer the casserole: Spread the cooked egg noodles evenly in the prepared casserole dish. Top with the beef mixture, spreading it out evenly. Then, dollop and spread the sour cream and cheese mixture over the top.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
