Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 oz egg noodles (or no-yolk)
2 tsp oil
4 cloves garlic (sliced thin)
12 oz fresh broccoli florets (chopped)
1 tbsp butter
1 medium shallot (minced)
3 tbsp all purpose flour
1-3/4 cups chicken broth
1 cup 1% milk
12 oz cooked shredded chicken breast
4 oz shredded reduced fat sharp cheddar (Sargento)
cooking spray
3 tbsp shredded parmesan cheese
2 tbsp seasoned breadcrumbs (I used whole wheat)

Steps:

  • Cook noodles in salted water until al dente, or slightly under-cooked by 2 minutes. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile heat oil in a large skillet. Add garlic and cook on medium heat until golden, about 1 minute.
  • Add the broccoli and a little salt, sauté and cover the broccoli for about 3 minutes on medium heat until the broccoli begins to soften. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly spray a 9 x 12 casserole dish with cooking spray.
  • In a large pot, heat butter over medium-low heat, when melted add the shallot and cook until soft, 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the flour and a pinch of salt and stir well, cooking an additional 2-3 minutes on medium-low heat. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth until well combined over medium heat; whisk well for 30 seconds, then add the milk and bring to a boil. Simmer on medium heat, mixing occasionally until it thickens (about 6-7 minutes).
  • Remove from heat and add reduced fat sharp cheddar and 1 tablespoon of the parmesan cheese; mix well until the cheese melts.
  • Add the shredded chicken, noodles and broccoli to the sauce and mix well until evenly coated.
  • Pour into a casserole dish and top with Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs.
  • Spray a little more cooking spray on top and bake for about 20 - 25 minutes. Place the casserole under the broiler a few minutes to get the crumbs crisp and golden (careful not to burn). Divide in 6 equal portions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right noodles: Medium egg noodles are the classic choice for chicken broccoli noodle casserole, but you can also use wide egg noodles, fettuccine, or even spaghetti. If you're using a different type of noodle, be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: The noodles should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. If you overcook them, they'll become mushy and the casserole will be less enjoyable.
  • Use fresh broccoli: Fresh broccoli florets are the best choice for this casserole. Frozen broccoli can also be used, but it's important to thaw it completely before adding it to the casserole.
  • Don't overcrowd the casserole dish: The casserole dish should be large enough to accommodate all of the ingredients without overcrowding. If the casserole dish is too small, the casserole will be dry and the noodles will be overcooked.
  • Use a creamy sauce: The creamy sauce is what makes chicken broccoli noodle casserole so delicious. You can use a homemade cream sauce or a store-bought Alfredo sauce. If you're using a homemade sauce, be sure to season it well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  • Top with cheese: A layer of cheese is essential for a classic chicken broccoli noodle casserole. You can use cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, or a combination of both. If you're using a sharp cheddar cheese, the casserole will have a more pronounced flavor.
  • Bake until bubbly: The casserole should be baked until it's bubbly and the cheese is melted and golden brown. This usually takes about 25-30 minutes.
  • Let it rest before serving: Once the casserole is out of the oven, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the casserole to set.

Conclusion:

Chicken broccoli noodle casserole is a classic comfort food dish that's perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make, and it's always a hit with the whole family. With its creamy sauce, tender noodles, and flavorful chicken and broccoli, this casserole is sure to become a favorite in your home.
