CHEF JOHN'S TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE



Chef John's Tuna Noodle Casserole image

I consider this the king of comfort food casseroles. What I love about this recipe, other than that it is simple and easy, is that it doesn't require the traditional can of cream of mushroom soup--but it still has the same amount of creamy, decadent goodness that every casserole should. Serve this with a green salad on the side.

Categories     Seafood     Fish     Tuna

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup finely diced yellow onion
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, divided
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups cold milk
1 cup shredded white Cheddar cheese
1 (12 ounce) package dry egg noodles
2 (5.5 ounce) cans tuna packed in olive oil, drained and crumbled, or to taste
¾ cup frozen peas, thawed and drained
1 pinch cayenne pepper
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ cup plain bread crumbs
½ cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
  • Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Saute onion with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt until it starts to soften up and turn translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour, and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes, reducing heat if needed.
  • Pour in cold milk and whisk for 1 minute. Raise heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the sauce thickens and comes to a simmer. Remove from heat, whisk in Cheddar cheese, and reserve until needed.
  • Fill a large pot with water and remaining salt and bring to a rapid boil. Cook egg noodles for 5 minutes. Drain well and add to a large mixing bowl. Stir in the reserved sauce, followed by tuna, peas, cayenne, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix with a spatula until evenly combined.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared dish. Mix bread crumbs, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, and olive oil together in a small bowl until combined and resembling wet sand. Sprinkle evenly over the casserole.
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until browned and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let sit for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
