  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and lightly grease a medium baking dish.

    Bring a saucepan of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles in the boiling water for 6 to 8 minutes, or until slightly firm. Drain.

    Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the flour and cook until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the milk. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, until thick and smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the noodles, chicken, ham, celery, salt, and pepper. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

    Bake for 15 minutes in the preheated oven. Sprinkle with the cheese and paprika, then bake for another 5 minutes. Serve hot.
