Напрямки

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch (or similar size) baking dish.

Cook noodles: In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook egg noodles until just al dente (slightly firm, since they’ll bake more). Drain and set aside.

Make the sauce: In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Assemble casserole: Stir the cooked noodles, shredded chicken, half of the cheddar cheese, and half of the bacon into the sauce mixture. Mix until everything is evenly coated.

Transfer to dish: Pour mixture into prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and bacon evenly on top.

Bake: Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10–15 minutes, until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Serve: Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with green onions if desired.
