Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
While the noodles are cooking, place the chicken breasts in a separate pot of boiling water. Cook for 10-12 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from water, shred the chicken with two forks, and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese (reserve 1/2 cup for topping), milk, salt, pepper, and parsley. Mix until smooth.
Add the cooked egg noodles and shredded chicken into the mixture, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with butter or nonstick cooking spray. Pour the mixture from the bowl into the dish, spreading it out evenly.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Crush the Ritz crackers and mix them into the melted butter until they are evenly coated. This will be the topping.
Sprinkle the buttered Ritz cracker mixture over the casserole, followed by the reserved shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
