French Onion Chicken Noodle Casserole is an easy family dinner idea that everyone loves. Simple to make with rotisserie chicken & egg noodles. Delicious!
I sure love quick & easy dinner recipes. Seems the older the kids get the busier we are.
It’s hard enough to get everyone at the table at the same time between work & school schedules, so when I can create a super quick dinner, like this French Onion Chicken Noodle Casserole, that the whole family loves that is a WIN.
This post was sponsored by No Yolks as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own.
Anything I can do to maximize our time together as a family is a bonus for us all.
We started with No Yolks egg noodles for this super easy recipe. We always keep them on hand for quick dinners that everyone loves. You just can’t go wrong with these when making a super yummy dish like this French onion chicken noodle casserole.
They are so versatile, we use them in casseroles, soups, salads & more. No Yolks is a healthy egg noodle alternative, made from egg whites and no cholesterol, and are low in fat and sodium.
Chicken Noodle Casserole
So thick & creamy with that great flavor of French Onion- the family requests this one again & again. I remember as a kid craving casseroles when the weather got chilly.
Something about a warm & cozy home & delicious comfort food like this just makes the season so inviting. I really love it when we have the fire going during dinner too.
French Onion Chicken Casserole
Chicken, cheese, creamy goodness mixed with noodles & topped with crunchy fried onions. YUUUMMM! This recipe works great for leftover chicken when we have made tacos the night before.
But there are times when I pick up several rotisserie chickens, pull off all the meat & freeze it in a bag. Then when I need a fast dinner I can just pull it out, microwave for about a minute & mix it into my dish.
Works great for casseroles & soups too, but this is by far my favorite. Find No Yolks in a variety of cuts for all types of recipes including Broad, Extra Broad, Fine, Kluski, Dumplings, and now Stir-Fry.
Don’t you just want to dive right in? It’s the perfect dinner for busy nights.

I want to try but don’t what French Onion Dip is. What is the brand and how packaged?
Gina Kleinworth says
French onion dip is a powdered seasoning mix used to make the popular onion dip for chips and veggies.
While it is available from a wide variety of brands, I typically use this one here from Lipton https://amzn.to/3dnRnfJ
But any brand will work as long as the packet volume weight is the same.
Jessica says
I added celery, rice, paprika, onion powder, and French green beans. This is my favorite dish!!!
Moe NH says

French Onion Chicken Casserole: You can purchase just the chicken breast at Costco, saving a step of pulling chicken off a whole chicken.
Chad says
So good! Everyone had second helpings. Instead of a rotisserie chicken I bought some flavored chicken thighs. Cooked them in the air fryer the. Chopped and added to the recipe. Adding this to the dinner rotation.
Tara says
Do you prepare the French onion dip? In the recipe it says chilled 16 oz but in another question in the comments you only link the powder.
Gina Kleinworth says
16 oz chilled French onion dip “like you would use for dipping chips” – this would be prepared OR premade from the store. The link is for the mix, if you want to make it prior to making this recipe. You can use sour cream or plain Greek yogurt + the mix as well.
Ashley W. says
This was sooooo good!! Out family LOVED it!
Jennifer says
Was looking for something different and this was it … but super tasty! I did use gluten free products and I added mushrooms. This will be made on a regular basis.
Chasity says
Love this dish! Would you happen to know thawing and reheat instructions if I cooked and froze? Thanks!
Gina Kleinworth says
I’m glad you like it. But I’m sorry, I have never frozen this dish as noodles don’t always taste that great after thawing.
