Savory Chicken with Buttered Noodles Easy Meal Guide

Ingredients

• 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• to taste salt and pepper
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
• 8 ounces egg noodles
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 piece zest of lemon
• for serving grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. While the noodles are cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme on both sides.
3. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
4. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Stir in heavy cream and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
5. Return the chicken to the skillet. Add lemon zest and fresh parsley. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
6. In a separate bowl, mix the drained noodles with unsalted butter, tossing until melted and well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Slice the chicken and arrange it over a bed of buttered noodles. Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the top and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
