EASY CHICKEN NOODLE CASSEROLE



Easy Chicken Noodle Casserole image

It is easy to prepare and everyone I have made it for really likes it! Serve with bread and your favorite vegetables, if desired. (Note: You can also use 2 pounds of chicken breast meat instead of a whole chicken; I like to cook my chicken ahead of time and freeze it, so that it is even quicker to make when I'm ready).

Provided by Kristen Hills

Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

16 ounces egg noodles (cooked (follow the cooking instructions on the package))

Tips:

  • Use a variety of noodles. This recipe is versatile and can be made with any type of noodle you like. Some popular options include spaghetti, macaroni, and penne.
  • Cook the noodles al dente. This means cooking them until they are still slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent them from becoming mushy in the casserole.
  • Use a flavorful cheese. A sharp cheddar or Parmesan cheese will add a lot of flavor to the casserole. You can also use a combination of cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Gruyère.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken breast is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Add your favorite vegetables. This recipe is a great way to sneak in some extra vegetables. Some popular options include broccoli, carrots, and peas.

Conclusion:

This easy noodle and chicken casserole is a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken or noodles. With a few simple ingredients and steps, you can have a delicious and satisfying casserole that the whole family will love.
