1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
2 Combine chicken, egg noodles, chicken broth, cream, onions, mushrooms, pimentos, peas, Worcestershire sauce, chicken bouillon granules, and black pepper in the prepared baking dish. Stir until well combined.
3 Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake until the most of the noodles are tender, 30 minutes.
4 Uncover the dish and stir the casserole, pressing any underdone noodles under the sauce. Combine panko and melted butter in a small bowl; sprinkle evenly over the top. Bake uncovered until the topping is golden brown, 15 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
