Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts Approximately 1.5 lbs
  • 8 oz egg noodles
  • 4 tbsp real butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped For garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste To season

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Prep your ingredients by chopping garlic and any desired vegetables.
Cooking
  1. Sear chicken in a large skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tbsp butter until golden brown (approximately 5 minutes per side). Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil.
  4. Stir in egg noodles, simmering for 8-10 minutes until al dente.
  5. Remove from heat; stir in remaining butter and sprinkle with parsley before serving.

Notes

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for about 3 days. Reheat with a splash of chicken broth to keep the noodles moist. For variations, try different pasta shapes or swap chicken for shrimp or tofu.
