Ingredients

Kosher salt

8 ounces egg noodles

Cooking spray

1 1/3 cups whole milk

1 5.2-ounce package garlic-and-herb cheese (such as Boursin)

1/2 cup sour cream

1 large egg

Freshly ground pepper

4 ounces shredded Monterey Jack cheese

2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

1 12-ounce jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

1 10-ounce bag frozen peas, thawed

1/4 cup crushed butter crackers (such as Ritz; 6 to 8 crackers)

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs. Reserve 1/4 cup cooking water, then drain the noodles. Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk the milk, garlic-and-herb cheese, sour cream, egg and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper until smooth. Fold in half of the Monterey Jack, the chicken, parsley, artichokes, peas and cooked noodles. If the mixture seems dry, stir in some of the reserved cooking water. Transfer the mixture to the baking dish.
  3. Combine the crushed crackers and remaining Monterey Jack in a small bowl and sprinkle over the top of the noodle mixture. Place the dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until browned on top and bubbly, about 25 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.

This was very good on a weeknight.  All we needed was a salad on the side.  Other than the 25 minutes in the oven, this comes together quickly.  I used a 9-inch square pan to make sure it wouldn't overflow (I did place it on a baking sheet as well), and that gave me even more surface area for the crunchy topping for a better ratio of crunch to soft noodles.  I had many of the ingredients in the freezer (including the Boursin, chicken, cheese, and milk), so this was a good use-up as well.
