Ingredients
12 oz egg noodles
3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup milk
1 cup frozen peas and carrots
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
2. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles until just al dente. Drain and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup, sour cream, softened cream cheese, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
4. Add the cooked noodles, shredded chicken, and frozen peas and carrots to the bowl. Gently fold everything together to coat evenly.
5. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.
6. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
7. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes or until hot and bubbly around the edges and the cheese is melted.
8. Let the casserole rest for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Notes
Let the cream cheese come to room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps in your sauce.
Use al dente noodles to avoid a soggy casserole after baking.
Add a splash of milk when reheating leftovers to restore creaminess.
