Break out a family favorite: tuna casserole. The traditional comfort food is great for serving large groups. In our tuna casserole recipe, we cut the sauce with chicken broth, but there's enough milk to make this casserole feel indulgent.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

Coarse salt and ground pepper
3/4 pound tubetti or elbow macaroni
1 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
1/2 ounce Parmesan, grated (2 tablespoons)
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced small
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 cans (6 ounces each) solid light tuna packed in water, drained and flaked
1 cup frozen peas, thawed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta 2 minutes less than package instructions (it will be undercooked). Drain. In a small bowl, toss together panko, Parmesan, and 2 teaspoons oil.
  • In pot, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high. Add onion, season with salt and pepper, and cook until softened, 8 minutes. Add flour and whisk to coat onion with flour. Slowly whisk in broth, then milk.
  • Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce is thickened, about 8 minutes. Stir in pasta, tuna, and peas and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Transfer tuna mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and top with panko mixture. Bake until sauce is bubbling and crust is golden, 17 to 20 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.

MY TUNA CASSEROLE

This is an inexpensive, hearty, and satisfying meal. Made with ingredients that are most always on hand, this casserole is the perfect meal solution on nights you just don't feel like going to the grocery store. I sometimes add frozen peas and some diced, cooked carrots to the mixture before baking, to make this a delicious 'all in one' dinner. The buttery crumb topping provides a nice, crunchy contrast to the creamy filling. Enjoy !!

MY TUNA CASSEROLE



My Tuna Casserole image

This is the best tuna casserole I have ever eaten in my life! I prefer to eat it when it is fixed on the stovetop, rather than baked, but you can make it baked with this recipe also.

Provided by Chef Sunshine

Categories     Stew

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6 ounce) cans tuna in vegetable oil, drained
2 (10 3/4 ounce) cans cream of mushroom soup
1 (7 ounce) can peas
1 (12 ounce) package egg noodles (I use NO Yolks Noodles, medium or broad)
5 hard-boiled eggs
1 yellow sweet onion, diced
regular potato chips (for baking only, I use either Lay's or the generic brand non-ruffle)
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Boil the eggs for 10-15 minutes.
  • Boil the egg noodles until al dente, 7-8 minutes.
  • Dice the onion.
  • While eggs & noodles are still boiling, mix the tuna, cream of mushroom soup, the small can of peas, and the diced onion together in a big pot on the stove. Cook at about medium.
  • When the noodles are al dente, drain, then add them to the big pot.
  • When the eggs are done, and warm enough to handle without getting burned, dice the eggs up into the big pot.
  • Stir the entire tuna casserole mixture well, add salt and lots of pepper to taste, and let simmer for a while, so that the flavors have a chance to mingle. About 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve hot.
  • Baked Recipe:.
  • Follow above recipe (excluding the stovetop big pot).
  • After mixing together all ingredients in a big bowl, get out your casserole dish, and lay a layer of the Lay's potato chips on the bottom.
  • Put in a thick layer of tuna casserole mixture, then add another layer of Lay's potato chips. Add another layer of tuna mixture, then chips, then tuna.
  • You can also crumble some up to sprinkle on the top.
  • Bake at 375°F for 20-30 minutes.
  • (I think this recipe is the best when it is not baked, but both ways are delicious).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality tuna. Opt for solid white albacore tuna packed in water or oil for the best flavor and texture.
  • Cook the pasta al dente. This will help it hold its shape and prevent it from becoming mushy in the casserole.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. They should be tender but still slightly crisp.
  • Use a creamy sauce. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the casserole more flavorful.
  • Top with a crispy topping. This could be a breadcrumb, crushed crackers, or even a layer of cheese.
  • Let the casserole rest before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and the casserole to set.

Conclusion:

Tuna casserole is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its creamy sauce, tender tuna, and crispy topping, tuna casserole is a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal or a hearty dish to serve at a potluck, tuna casserole is a great option. So next time you are looking for a delicious and satisfying meal, give tuna casserole a try!
