Ingredients

  1. 8 oz. dried wide egg noodles (about 4 cups)
  2. Kosher salt
  3. 4 tbsp. unsalted butter
  4. 1 small yellow onion, finely chopped
  5. 1 large celery rib, finely chopped
  6. Freshly ground black pepper
  7. 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  8. 1/4 c. all-purpose flour
  9. 2 c. low-sodium chicken broth
  10. 2 c. whole milk
  11. 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
  12. 1 tbsp. finely chopped fresh dill, plus more for serving
  13. 2 c. shredded white sharp cheddar, divided
  14. 3 c. shredded cooked chicken
  15. 1 (10-oz.) package frozen peas and carrots, thawed (about 2 1/2 cups)
  16. 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  17. 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Arrange a rack in center of oven; preheat to 400°. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook egg noodles, stirring occasionally, until al dente according to package directions. Drain, then return to pot.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large (at least 12”) ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add onion and celery; season with a large pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until vegetables are tender, about 7 minutes. Add garlic and flour and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute more.
  3. Add broth and milk. Bring to a simmer, stirring frequently, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat.
  4. Stir in mustard, dill, and 1 cup cheese; season with ¾ tsp. salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add noodles, chicken, and peas and carrots, then stir until coated.
  5. In a medium bowl, stir crackers, oil, and remaining 1 cup cheddar. Sprinkle over chicken mixture in skillet.
  6. Transfer to oven and bake casserole until bubbling and cracker crumbs are browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool slightly. Top with dill.
