This flavorful one-pan creamy garlic butter chicken with egg noodles is a crowd-pleaser that's easy to prepare. Made with 2 pieces boneless, salt and pepper to taste, and olive oil, it's perfect for a weeknight dinner or special occasion.
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Begin by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and seasoning them thoroughly with salt and pepper to enhance their flavor.
- In a large skillet, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken pieces and cook until they become golden brown, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- Using the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté it for approximately 1 minute until it becomes fragrant.
- Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and bring the mixture to a boil. Then, add the egg noodles, stirring gently to ensure they are fully immersed in the broth.
- Allow the noodles to cook for about 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they reach an al dente texture.
- Add the previously cooked chicken back into the skillet.
- Reduce the heat and mix in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until everything is well combined and creamy.
- Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning as necessary. Once done, remove it from heat and garnish with the chopped parsley before serving.
