This casserole was inspired by a classic chicken noodle soup recipe. The casserole includes mushrooms, pearl onions, carrots, celery, and grilled chicken for a quicker result. It's heated through with the noodles in a light creamy sauce and baked under a layer of grated Gouda cheese until the casserole is covered with a golden, melted cheese. The egg noodles, cooked until half-done, absorb the delicious juices without overcooking. The result is delicious and mouthwatering.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 190°C. Grease a 3-quart casserole with butter.
  2. Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook until al dente, about 4 minutes. Drain.

  3. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large Dutch oven or saucepan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with 0.5 teaspoon of salt and a little pepper. Transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
  4. Reduce heat to medium and melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan. Stir in the flour until a thin paste forms. Add the onion, carrot, celery, thyme, 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and a pinch of black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes to soften the vegetables, then add the wine. Stir for 30 seconds, then add the chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the thyme sprigs, add the noodles, mushrooms, chicken, and parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a greased casserole and top with Gouda.
  6. Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.
