How to Make Chicken Noodle Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Cook 1 pound of egg noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
  3. While noodles cook, sauté 1 medium onion, chopped, in 2 tablespoons of butter until softened.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked noodles, 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken, the sautéed onions, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  5. Stir in 10.75 ounces (1 can) condensed cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 cup milk until well combined.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 2-quart casserole dish.
  7. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons melted butter. Sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
  8. Cover the casserole dish and bake for 50 minutes.
  9. Uncover and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly.
