Easy Spicy Chicken Casserole (The Spicy Is Optional)

1. 1

   Cut chicken in 1 1/2 inch cubes (this will help it to cook faster and get the seasonings throughout the whole piece of chicken).

2. 2

   Boil chicken in a big covered pot of water seasoned with sea salt, garlic powder, oregano, rosemary, cayenne, cumin and bay leaves for approximately 1 hour. (Don't let boil too hard or your broth will evaporate too quickly).

3. 3

   Have soups, veggies, green chilies and 1 cup shredded cheese pre-mixed in bowl; set aside.

4. 4

   Once cooked, scoop chicken out of pot, add more water to broth and boil egg noodles in broth until soft.

5. 5

   Drain pasta and return to pot.

6. 6

   Add chicken and soup mixture to pot and stir.

7. 7

   Pour into casserole dish and top with remaining cheese.

8. 8

   Bake at 400u00b0F for 15 minutes.

9. 9

   Turn to broil for another 5-6 minutes checking every few minutes to make sure the cheese doesn't burn.

10. 10

    Sprinkle top with crushed red pepper and cayenne if you want it spicier.

11. 11

    I usually top half of the casserole with the red pepper and cayenne for those that want it spicier.
