Ingredients (Serves 4–6)
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 2 cups egg noodles (uncooked)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F). Lightly grease a medium-sized baking dish to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
Step 2: Cook the Noodles
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions—but aim for slightly undercooked (al dente).
Drain them well and set aside. This prevents the noodles from becoming too soft while baking.
Step 3: Mix the Base
In a large mixing bowl, combine:
- Cream of chicken soup
- Milk
Stir until smooth and fully blended. This creates the creamy sauce that holds the casserole together.
