A delightful twist on a classic casserole, combining tender chicken with flavorful vegetables and a crispy noodle topping.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
In a sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat and cook the onion and celery until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from browning too much.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken broth, soy sauce, and pepper. Add the cooked chicken and mix well.
Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Transfer the sautéed vegetables and chicken mixture into a casserole dish. Top with chow mein noodles and cashews.
Spread the topping evenly for a consistent crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the top is golden and crispy.
Check the casserole halfway through to ensure even baking.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious casserole.
Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley for added flavor.
