Description
A comforting one-pan dish featuring savory chicken and soft egg noodles coated in buttery garlic sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (454 g) boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 8 oz (227 g) egg noodles (dry)
- 4 tablespoons (56.8 g) unsalted butter, divided
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup (240 ml) chicken broth (low-sodium recommended)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
- Add the chicken pieces, seasoning with salt and pepper, and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–7 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add chicken broth and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually 6–8 minutes.
- Drain excess liquid if necessary, then stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and return the cooked chicken to the skillet.
- Toss everything together until the butter is melted and coats the noodles and chicken. Serve with chopped parsley on top.
Notes
For best results, do not overcrowd the pan when browning the chicken. Adjust sodium levels by choosing low-sodium broth.
