Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 oz package medium egg noodles
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
2 cups cooked chicken (such as leftover rotisserie chicken)
8 oz sliced button mushrooms
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh basil, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • 1. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain noodles thoroughly. Return noodles to the pot they were cooked in, and set the pot aside for the time being.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease (or spray) a 9x13-inch baking dish; set aside.
  • 3. In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Gradually add flour, stirring frequently until smooth. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the chicken broth and milk, then increase heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, about 5 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened and begins to bubble. Stir in salt and pepper; set sauce aside.
  • 4. Add the chicken, mushrooms, onion, basil and parsley to the drained noodles, and combine well. Add the sauce to the chicken-noodle mixture. Transfer the mixture to the baking dish. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese on top.
  • 5. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until heated throughout. Serve immediately.
