1/3 cup flour
1 cup milk
2 cups chicken broth
1 small can (about 3 oz) mushrooms
2 cups cooked and cubed chicken
2 tsp. salt (or slightly less to taste)

Cook noodles according to package directions; drain.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Melt margarine, then whisk in flour until smooth. Gradually add milk and broth (separately or can be mixed); then stir in seasonings and mushrooms.

Combine chicken, cooked noodles and prepared sauce.

Put in ungreased 9×13″ baking pan and top with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20 minutes.

Chiles Rellanos Casserole

Servings: 4
Prep Time: 20 mins

2 large fresh poblano chile peppers or fresh Anaheim chile peppers (8 ounces)
4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeno chile peppers, shredded, or shredded Mexican-style four-cheese blend (1-1/2 cups)
2 ounces crumbled Cotija cheese (1/2 cup)
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1/4 cup milk
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt


directions
1.
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart square baking dish; set aside. Quarter the chile peppers and remove seeds, stems, and veins.* Immerse peppers in boiling water for 3 minutes; drain. Invert peppers onto paper towels to drain well. Place the peppers, cut side up, in prepared baking dish. Top with cheeses.
2.
In a medium bowl combine eggs and milk. Add flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Beat with a rotary beater until smooth (or place in a food processor or blender; cover and process or blend until smooth). Pour egg mixture over chile peppers and cheeses.
3.
Bake, uncovered, about 15 minutes or until a knife inserted into the egg mixture comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Tip

Because chile peppers contain volatile oils that can burn your skin and eyes, avoid direct contact with them as much as possible. When working with chile peppers, wear plastic or rubber gloves. If your bare hands do touch the peppers, wash your hands and nails well with soap and warm water.
