Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked egg noodles

2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)

2 cups fresh broccoli florets (or frozen, thawed)

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1 cup cream of chicken soup

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup milk

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup bread crumbs (optional, for topping)

2 tablespoons olive oil (if using bread crumbs)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Noodles: Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

      Blanch Broccoli: If using fresh broccoli, blanch the florets in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until vibrant green, then drain and rinse with cold water. This helps maintain their color and crunch.

        Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked egg noodles, shredded chicken, broccoli florets, half of the cheddar cheese, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are evenly coated.

          Transfer to Casserole Dish: Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch casserole dish. Spread evenly.

            Add Topping: If using bread crumbs, combine them with olive oil, then sprinkle over the casserole. If you prefer a cheesier top, simply add the remaining cheddar cheese directly on top.

              Bake: Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and the top is golden brown.

                Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious Broccoli Cheddar Chicken and Noodle Casserole!
