Description

A comforting one-pan meal featuring tender chicken and silky egg noodles bathed in buttery goodness, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then place them in the pan. Sear for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown and fully cooked. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  2. In that same pan, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente.
  3. Once the noodles are cooked, drain any excess liquid and add them back to the pan. Mix in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, stirring until it’s melted and the noodles are nicely coated.
  4. Slice the chicken, return it to the pan, and gently toss everything together. If you wish, add a sprinkle of parsley for garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or freeze for longer storage. Reheat with a splash of chicken broth.
