📝 Ingredients
- 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
👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1 – Preheat & Prepare
Set your oven to 350°F (180°C) and lightly grease a medium baking dish.
Step 2 – Cook the Noodles
Boil the egg noodles in salted water until just tender (al dente). Drain well and set aside.
Step 3 – Mix the Sauce
In a bowl, stir together the cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth.
Step 4 – Combine
Add the cooked chicken and drained noodles to the sauce. Mix gently until everything is evenly coated.
Step 5 – Assemble
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Step 6 – Bake
Bake for 25–30 minutes, until hot, bubbly, and lightly golden on top.
Step 7 – Rest & Serve
Let it sit for about 5 minutes before serving so it sets slightly and is easier to portion.

- Rotisserie chicken works great for extra flavor and convenience

- Optional add-ins: peas, carrots, sautéed onions, mushrooms, or a crunchy breadcrumb topping for extra texture
