Oven Baked Garlic Parmesan Noodles
Buttery egg noodles are tossed with garlic and Parmesan, then baked until golden with lightly crisped edges. This simple comfort-food dish works well as a rich side, potluck casserole, or easy vegetarian main.
Ingredients
- 12 oz wide or medium egg noodles
- 1 cup salted butter melted
- 4 cloves garlic minced, or about 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 1/2 cups grated Parmesan cheese divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and grease a 9x13-inch metal baking pan.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Cook the egg noodles until just al dente, slightly under the package timing.
- While the noodles cook, melt the butter and stir in the minced garlic.
- Let the garlic sit in the warm butter for about 1 minute to soften.
- Drain the noodles well and return them to the warm pot.
- Pour the garlic butter over the noodles and toss until evenly coated.
- Add 1 cup of the grated Parmesan and toss again.
- Transfer the noodles to the prepared baking pan and spread them evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan over the top.
- Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the top is melted and beginning to turn golden and the noodle edges are lightly crisp.
- If desired, broil for 1–2 minutes for extra browning, watching closely.
- Let the noodles rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Pull the noodles just shy of fully cooked so they do not become mushy in the oven. Watch closely if broiling, as the cheese browns quickly.
