If you’re looking for a casserole that brings together the best of both worlds – creaminess and crunchiness – then look no further. This Chicken Crunch Casserole is a true comfort food that will leave you satisfied and craving more. And the best part? It’s incredibly easy to make!

Unlike those casseroles that try to pass off rice and broccoli as a healthy dinner option, this casserole embraces its indulgent nature. With a crispy fried onion topping and a creamy noodle base, it hits all the right notes. And the best part? You’ll only need a few basic ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry and fridge.

Let’s get started. If you already have some leftover cooked chicken, great! The first step is to cook some egg noodles according to package instructions. While the noodles are cooking, mix together shredded chicken, sour cream, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, and grated cheddar cheese in a large bowl. Once the noodles are cooked and drained, add them to the bowl and stir everything together.

Now it’s time to bring it all together. Transfer the mixture to a greased 10-inch square baking dish and pop it in the oven at 350°F. In just about 25 minutes, you’ll have a golden brown and bubbly casserole that’s ready to be topped with a generous amount of French fried onions. Return it to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes until the onions are beautifully browned.

Give it a few minutes to cool down, and then it’s time to dig in! The combination of the tender and creamy casserole with the crispy and golden brown onions is a match made in heaven. This dish is the perfect guilty pleasure comfort food that will have you coming back for seconds.
