QUICK AND EASY STOVE-TOP TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cook the egg noodles.
• During the last few minutes add the frozen peas to the simmering noodles; then drain.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
• Whisk in the flour, and continue whisking for about 2 minutes or until the flour butter mixture starts to turn a beige color (a very light colored roux).
• Continue whisking and slowly add 1 of the cups of milk, incorporating the liquid as you whisk; then add the remaining 1 cup of milk.
• Let it come to a gentle boil, stirring regularly to keep from burning on the bottom of the pan as it thickens.
• When it's thick enough to coat a spoon and leave a strip behind where you ran your finger through the coating on the spoon, it's ready to add the drained tuna.
• Break up the solid tuna chunks with a fork and mix throughout the sauce.
• Add the salt, pepper, and any seasonings or herbs.
• Pour the tuna sauce over the noodles and peas, and serve.

• Heat the oven to 375 degrees and grease a 9-by-13 or other 3-quart casserole dish with butter.

Add the celery and onion, season with salt and cook over medium, stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the capers and garlic and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, until no streaks of flour remain, about 1 minute, reducing the heat as necessary to keep from scorching. Add the stock, half-and-half, sherry, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and bring to a boil.
• Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally and scraping the bottom of the pan, until the sauce has thickened slightly, 5 to 7 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the tuna, peas and parsley, if using; season to taste.
• Add the cooked noodles and toss well. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and smooth into an even layer. Sprinkle the crushed potato chips on top and bake, uncovered, until hot and bubbling, about 25 minutes. Garnish with additional parsley, if using, and serve hot.
