2 15-ouncecans green beansdrained (or 2 ½ cups fresh or frozen)
12ouncesuncooked rotini
2cupsfrench fried onions
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Bring a pot of salted water to boil over medium-high heat. Add the pasta and cook to package directions. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring chicken broth and half a cup of milk to a simmer. While the broth is coming to a simmer, whisk together flour and remaining 1 cup of milk in a small bowl until thick and smooth. Pour into the saucepan with the broth and continue whisking over low heat while it simmers. Continue to whisk until thickened; about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large bowl, combine thickened chicken broth mixture, sour cream and onion soup mix until well mixed. Add chicken, noodles and green beans and stir to coat completely. Pour into a large baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes.
Uncover and top with the french fried onions; bake for an additional 5-7 minutes or until onions are crispy and golden brown.
Cool for several minutes. Garnish with fresh minced parsley if desired.
Notes
You’ll want to let your French Onion Chicken Casserole sit for several minutes to cool, which is a great time to whip up a quick salad to serve on the side!
