How to Make Green Noodle Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. Cook chicken: You can roast, stew, or use pre-cooked chicken from the deli. If roasting or stewing, season chicken with salt and pepper and cook until fully cooked through (about 20-25 minutes for roasting).
  3. Dice the cooked chicken into 1 1/2-inch cubes.
  4. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté green pepper, onion, and mushrooms until tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  5. In a large pot, bring chicken stock to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package directions until al dente. Do not drain.
  6. Stir in the cooked chicken, sautéed vegetables, peas, olives, and pimentos.
  7. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Pour half of the noodle mixture into a greased 3-quart casserole dish.
  9. Sprinkle half of the cheese over the noodle mixture.
  10. Pour in the remaining noodle mixture and top with the remaining cheese.
  11. Cover the casserole dish and bake for 45 minutes.
  12. Uncover and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
