A quick and creamy tuna noodle dish made on the stovetop, perfect for a comforting meal.
Cook the egg noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain.
Ensure the water is well-salted for flavorful noodles.
In a skillet, combine the milk, mayonnaise, and seasonings, and heat over medium-low heat until smooth.
Stir constantly to prevent the sauce from curdling.
Add the cooked noodles, tuna, and peas to the skillet, stirring to combine.
Gently fold the ingredients to avoid breaking the tuna chunks.
Sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the mixture and cover the skillet, allowing the cheese to melt.
Covering the skillet helps the cheese melt evenly.
Serve the dish warm, garnished with a sprinkle of paprika if desired.
Serve with a side salad for a complete meal.
