Chicken Tetrazzini

Chicken Tetrazzini: egg noodles, sautéed mushrooms, roast chicken all baked together with a béchamel sauce.

Ingredients

8 serv.
  • one 3-pound rotisserie chicken, meat pulled and shredded3
  • cooked egg noodles (I like the Alberto’s brand)1
  • sliced mushrooms, sautéed1
  • tetrazzini sauce (see below)3
  • Parmesan cheese0.25 cup
  • melted butter0.25 cup
  • flour0.33333333333333 cup
  • milk or cream (I used 1 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 cup whole milk, but I think half and half would also work)2 cup
  • chicken broth (more as needed)1.5
  • salt (to taste)1.5 teaspoon
  • dry white wine0.25 cup

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Prep: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prepare the ingredients – pull the chicken, cook the noodles, sauté the mushrooms.

  2. 2

    Sauce: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until incorporated. Cook for a few minutes to remove the floury taste. Slowly add the milk and broth, a little bit at a time, whisking after each addition until you get a nice, smooth, thickened sauce. Season with salt and stir in the wine. Taste and adjust – more salt, more wine, more broth to thin the sauce, etc.

  3. 3

    Assemble: Toss the noodles with about a cup of sauce. In a greased 9×13 pan, layer: sauced‑up noodles, mushrooms, half of sauce, chicken, remaining half of sauce, and Parmesan.

  4. 4

    Bake: Bake for 30 minutes until melty and bubbly. Broil for 5 minutes to get the top browned. Season with salt and pepper to taste for serving. YUM-O.
