LEMONY TUNA NOODLE CASSEROLE



Lemony Tuna Noodle Casserole image

From Coastal Living magazine October 2010. My sister made this for a baby shower we attended this weekend and the response was overwhelming - EVERYONE - including the mama-to-be, wanted this recipe!! We never grew up with tuna casserole (our mother is from Spain), but for a first time try, this one was out of the park. Definitely nice enough for company, and easy to make! The only changes she made were to add a few grinds of black pepper and she subbed one of the cans of oil-packed tuna for a water-packed one as she had it in her pantry already. Although I think that the mild flavor of the leeks was one of the keys, I'm sure subbing regular sauteed onions would be acceptable. Don't skimp on the Gruyere; she added a bit extra there too :)

Time 1h

Yield 1 casserole, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 ounces wide egg noodles
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 large leeks, sliced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 cups whole milk, at room temperature
4 cups gruyere cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 (5 1/2 ounce) cans white tuna packed in oil, drained and flaked (look for 'chunk white' or 'chunk light' on label)
3 tablespoons olive oil, extra-virgin
1 teaspoon garlic, minced
1 cup panko breadcrumbs (Japanese breadcrumbs)

Steps:

  • Cook egg noodles until al dente according to package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again.

Pour in milk; bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, whisking frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 3 minutes or until sauce is smooth and thickened.
  • Remove from heat, and whisk in cheese and next 3 ingredients. Fold in tuna and egg noodles. Pour into a greased 3-quart baking dish.
  • Combine olive oil, garlic, and panko; sprinkle over casserole. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

LEMON PEPPER TUNA



Lemon Pepper Tuna image

This is very quick and easy but extremely tasty. I sometimes like to substitute the Dijon mustard with Coleman's English Mustard for a really HOT taste. Lemon thyme is also nice used in place of the chives.
