Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 8 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Stir in the egg noodles, making sure they are fully submerged in the broth.
- Cover and cook the noodles for about 7-8 minutes, or until the noodles are al dente and most of the liquid has been absorbed.
- While the noodles are cooking, melt the butter in a separate pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Once the noodles are cooked, add the butter and garlic mixture to the skillet with the noodles. Stir in the Parmesan cheese (if using) and toss to combine.
- Slice the cooked chicken and arrange it on top of the noodles.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, you can use heavy cream in place of some of the chicken broth.
- Feel free to add vegetables like spinach, peas, or mushrooms to the skillet for added flavor and nutrients.
- You can substitute the egg noodles with any pasta you prefer.
