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).

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing dish
Kosher salt
12 ounces extra-wide egg noodles
10 ounces white mushrooms, halved or quartered
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups frozen pearl onions, thawed
1 medium carrot, halved lengthwise and sliced thinly across
1 large stalk celery, sliced thinly
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1/2 cup dry white wine or vermouth
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken, skin and bones discarded
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 cup shredded Gouda (about 4 ounces)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 3-quart casserole dish.

  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over, about 3 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
  • Lower the heat to medium and melt the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in the Dutch oven. Whisk in the flour to form a loose paste. Stir in the onions, carrots, celery and thyme and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook for 5 minutes to soften, then add the wine. Whisk for 30 seconds, then add the chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the thyme sprigs; fold in the noodles, mushrooms, chicken and parsley and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the buttered casserole dish and top with the Gouda.
  • Bake until bubbly and brown on top, 40 to 45 minutes.
