Cheesy Chicken Casserole Recipe (2024)

Cheesy Chicken Casserole Recipe (1)

Be a cool person and Pin this recipe on Pinterest – — Here is the link

The weather is colder and this is the perfect casserole when you want something yummy, filling, and cheesy

Cheese makes everything a little nicer

What I love the most about this recipe is that it heated up so well for my husband’s lunch – we were able to get 3 meals out of one casserole ( I love being able to take a little break from the kitchen 😉 )

Please note I accidentally have an extra can of soup and bag of pasta — I was developing this recipe as we went and we did not end up using these products 🙂

You might notice I use egg noodles in this recipe – you can use penne if you want to – I really thought the egg noodle would pair well with the cream of chicken soup and heat up well for the next day ( and I was right)

This casserole is large enough for 6 hungry people

You can easily switch out the 2% milk for almond milk – whatever floats your boat

Now lets look at that cheesy finish

So simple to make – seriously easy especially when you pick up a cooked chicken from the store

If you make this recipe I would love if you would comment on this post what you thought – it helps other readers know if they should make it or not 🙂

I really hope you make this dish 🙂

    You should post videos of you actually cooking these recipes. I’d thumb those up in a heartbeat. 🙂

    • Watson

      I post many videos of the recipes I do 🙂 Check out my youtube channel

  • Nikki

    Do you put the egg noodles in raw or cooked?

    • Maggie

      I believe the recipe calls for “12 ounce bag of egg noodles cooked”.

  • Karen

    Just made this tonight and it was a hit! We had corn on the side but I could also see it being mixed right in the casserole. We loaded up on the cheese and crackers a bit more. I could easily see stirring in some fried onions or maybe even some almonds. I’ll definitely be making this again! Thanks for the recipe!

    • Watson

      I am so glad you made it and enjoyed it 🙂

  • Jennifer

    I was wondering how many people does this feed? It looks great but thinking i am have to double up on it for a family of 5 and 2 teenagers that eat like a horse.

    • Watson

      I would double – it reheats well if you make too much.

  • Kathy

    I just made this for dinner tonight!! It was wonderful!! So easy to make and left a wonderful smell through out the house! I think perhaps next time I will add onions for a little more flavour. This is a definite dish on my list of regular things to make! Everyone loved it! 🙂

    • Watson

      I am so glad you liked it and thank you for the feedback 🙂

  • verenise

  • Heather Thiel

    I bet this would be good frozen too!

  • Laurie Beck

    Great for that leftover roasted chicken. Bet it would be great with left over turkey too!

  • Pamela Priebe

    Yes cheese makes almost everything taste better ! and the chicken is very moist !

  • kelly galpin

    this seems like a really easy recipe!

  • Patricia Rossi

    Made this with wheat pasta and it tasted great!

    I’ve made this with rice before in a pinch and it’s just as wonderful! Thanks for the awesome recipe!

  • Miranda

    Yum!!! This looks tasty!

  • Kim

    We will have to make this this week! My mom is looking too and she said it looks delicious!

  • Hly V

    Going to try and make these for frozen dinners

  • Amber Hellmann

    This was soooo good. I used canned chicken and shredded it for quick dinner.

  • Kristin

    Would you be able to substitute greek yogurt for the sour cream, or would it curdle?

  • Robin

    I would love to try this but please change the font. It’s so difficult to read.

    • Sara

      Weird it is in Times New Roman for me

  • Nat

    How was this recipe, anyone? I can’t see or find the comments on this page.? Thanks!

  • Lea

    I made this tonight it was yummy! However, I did make a few changes.
    I used the whole chicken so I doubled most everything but not the noodles as my store only had 8 or 16oz noodles. (used – 16oz wide egg noodles). Instead of 2 cans of cream of chicken soup I used 1 -c of c and 1 -c of mushroom. Missing were the veggies I love so I added frozen peas & carrots though broccoli or lima beans or anything you might like would work. For some reason I couldn’t see the other comments I would have liked to see them.

  • Christina

    This meal was absolutely delicious! I saw it today and made it today…. its nice to find meals like this that dont take hours to prepair after working all day 🙂 Thank you so so much for sharing!
    We fed 4 and still have a lot left:)

    • Sara

      I am so happy you liked it 🙂

  • jennifer

    Is a 12 ounce can of cream of chicken ok? Or a family size can? It dosent say.

  • Pat

    can you substitute the egg noodles for minute rice in this recipe

  • Jasmine

    I made this for dinner tonight, doubled the recipe and substituted the cream of chicken soup with one can of cream of celery and one can of cheddar cheese soup. Turned out great and the whole family liked it! Love the layer of cheese on top!

  • Jessica

    I love this recipe! I actually used leftover turkey from thanksgiving the first time I made it. Now I tend to like the Tyson diced grilled and ready chicken for it. I also add in an extra can of cream of chicken because it tends to run a little dry when I make it. Super easy and delicious though!

  • Tiffany C.

    Im making tonight! I seen that when i mixed everything it seemed dry maybe like there was not enough milk, however i havent made it yet just prepped it. Im hoping it turns out real good.

  • Heather

    Making this for dinner tonight . Ill Let u know how we like it

  • Magen

    Can bowtie noodles be used instead of egg noodles!!!!!

  • Kayla Tedrick

    Love this recipe! My husband is a super picky eater and this is perfect for him!

  • Kathy

    I made this and was wondering, can this be frozen? If so, what would be the best way of doing so?
