Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 10 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 sweet onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 1/2 cups frozen peas and carrots, thawed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast, cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles al dente following the package instructions, ensuring they are tender but still firm. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the diced sweet onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and thawed peas and carrots. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 3 minutes until the onions become soft and translucent, stirring occasionally.
- Make Sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to combine. Gradually pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer. Continue stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Serve: Add the cooked noodles and cubed chicken breast to the skillet with the sauce and vegetables. Mix everything gently until fully combined and heated through. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
- Use cooked chicken breast leftovers or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or milk, but the sauce will be less thick.
- Frozen peas and carrots can be replaced with fresh vegetables if available.
- To make it gluten free, use gluten free flour and noodles.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme for extra flavor.
