  • 1 can Cream of celery soup

Directions

    Preheat the oven to 350ðF (175ðC). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. 2
    Drain the canned chicken and mushrooms, reserving the juices if desired for extra moisture, though typically they are drained for a thicker sauce.
  3. 3
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained chicken, mushrooms, evaporated milk, cream of chicken soup, and cream of celery soup.
  4. 4
    Stir in the chow mein noodles until they are evenly coated and distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. 5
    Season the mixture with a dash of garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste.
  6. 6
    Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
  7. 7
    Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
  8. 8
    Bake uncovered for 45 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are golden brown.
  9. 9
    Let the casserole rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set slightly.
