Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 Tbsp butter, melted
  • 8 oz sliced cremini (baby portobello) mushrooms
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbsp fresh thyme, minced ((or 1 tsp dried thyme leaves))
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 16 oz egg noodles, cooked according to package directions
  • 3 cups cooked, shredded chicken ((see notes below for a fresh chicken breast option))
  • 2 cups frozen peas
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup Panko breadcrumbs

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 F degrees.
  • Heat a large oven safe pot (like cast iron) over MED heat.  Add 1/2 cup butter and melt.  Add mushrooms and onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5-6 minutes.  Add garlic and cook an additional minute.
  • Stir in thyme, salt, and pepper, then add flour, stirring to coat completely.
  • Add in chicken stock and heavy cream, stirring or whisking frequently to remove any flour lumps.  Cook, stirring often, about 8-10 minutes, until thickened.
  • Stir in prepared egg noodles, shredded chicken, frozen peas, and Parmesan cheese.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine remaining 1 Tbsp melted butter with panko breadcrumbs, then sprinkle over top of the dish.  Season with additional black pepper if desired, then bake, uncovered, for 35-45 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
