Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz egg noodles
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 medium, finely chopped yellow onion
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 cans (5 oz each), drained canned tuna
- 2 tbsp, freshly chopped parsley
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.25 cup, grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and stir well to coat. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth, whisking continually to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper until smooth. Add the drained tuna, and mix gently to combine.
Toss the cooked egg noodles with the sauce until fully coated. Add the freshly chopped parsley and stir to distribute evenly.
Transfer the noodle mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with additional parsley if desired.
