    List of Ingredients




    1/2 pound no-yolk egg noodles
    3 tbsp. All purpose flour
    1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth (separated)
    2 teaspoons canola oil
    1 small onion -- finely chopped
    2 cups fat-free milk
    1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
    1 tbsp. Chopped fresh tarragon
    1/2 tsp. salt
    freshly ground pepper
    1 pkg frozen peas -- (10-ounce)
    2 cups chopped cooked chicken
    1/2 cup shredded reduced-fat cheddar or Swiss cheese -- (2 ounces)

    Recipe



    1. Preheat oven to 350. Spray a 2-qt. high-sided baking dish with nonstick spray.

    2. Cook the noodles according to package directions, omitting the salt. Drain & set aside.

    3. Meanwhile, whisk the flour & ½ cup of the broth in a small bowl until the flour dissolves.

    4. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion & cook, stirring frequently, until softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in the milk and the remaining ½ cup broth; bring the mixture to a simmer. Whisk in the flour mixture; cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce bubbles & thickens, about 3 minutes. Stir in the mustard, tarragon, salt & pepper.

    5. Remove the pan from the heat & stir in the noodles, peas, chicken, and cheese. Pour the mixture into the baking dish. Bake until bubbling and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let stand about 5 minutes before serving.
