1 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion (finely chopped)
4 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups chicken broth

  • Add 3 noodles, remaining 1/3 sauce, and sprinkle on reserved 1 cup cheese.
  • Cover and Bake: Arrange 10-12 toothpicks over the top to keep the foil from touching the cheese then cover with a large sheet of foil. Bake on the center rack in a preheated oven at 375˚F for 45 minutes then uncover and broil 2-3 minutes to brown the cheese. Rest at least 10 minutes uncovered before slicing.
