One-Pan Chicken and Buttered Noodles
This One-Pan Chicken and Buttered Noodles recipe is a quick and delicious meal, perfect for busy weeknights.
Equipment
- Large heavy-bottomed skillet
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes per side. Once cooked through, remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Add the egg noodles to the skillet, ensuring they are submerged in the liquid. Cover the skillet and let the noodles cook until tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, approximately 8-10 minutes.
- Once the noodles are cooked, stir in the butter and grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce becomes creamy.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, allowing them to warm through for a few minutes.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
This dish is best served warm and can be garnished with additional Parmesan cheese if desired.
