Looking for a hassle-free dinner that packs a flavor punch? This one-pan dish featuring juicy chicken and creamy buttered noodles will become a weeknight favorite in no time!
Ingredients
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup heavy cream
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
8 oz egg noodles
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 cups chicken broth
3 tbsp butter
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Step 1: Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the skillet.
Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
Step 2: Prepare the Noodles
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic.
Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute until it becomes fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Step 3: Cook the Noodles
Stir the egg noodles into the skillet.
Cover the skillet and allow the noodles to cook for about 8-10 minutes until they reach the desired tenderness.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Step 4: Combine Ingredients
Once the noodles are cooked, reduce the heat to low.
Add the butter and grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet.
Stir the mixture until the butter and cheese are fully melted, creating a creamy sauce.
Return the chicken to the skillet, allowing it to heat through for a couple of minutes.
Step 5: Serve
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired.
Serve warm, ensuring to spoon some of the creamy sauce over the chicken and noodles.
