Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 8 ounces dried medium egg noodles
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup whipping cream
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms
  • 1 4-ounce jar diced pimentos, drained
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire
  • 2 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon granules
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Combine chicken, egg noodles, chicken broth, cream, onions, mushrooms, pimentos, peas, Worcestershire sauce, chicken bouillon granules, and black pepper in the prepared baking dish. Stir until well combined.
  3. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake until the most of the noodles are tender, 30 minutes.
  4. Uncover the dish and stir the casserole, pressing any underdone noodles under the sauce. Combine panko and melted butter in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake uncovered until the topping is golden brown, 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
