Description
A comforting dish that combines tender chicken breasts with creamy, buttery noodles, all cooked in one skillet for easy clean-up.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes on each side. Remove the chicken and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 7-9 minutes.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in heavy cream and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, mixing until the sauce is creamy and smooth.
- Return cooked chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the noodles. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
- Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. For freezing, keep sauce and noodles separate from the chicken.
