Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

For the Buttered Noodles:

  • 8 oz (225 g) egg noodles or your favorite pasta
  • 2 cups (480 ml) chicken broth
  • 1 cup (240 ml) water
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup (25 g) grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken:
    • Season the chicken breasts or thighs with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Sear the Chicken:
    • Heat olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook the Noodles:
    • In the same skillet, add the chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil.
    • Add the egg noodles and stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Cook according to the package instructions, until the noodles are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  4. Add the Butter and Garlic:
    • Lower the heat and stir in the butter and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
  5. Combine and Serve:
    • Return the chicken to the skillet, placing it on top of the noodles. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley, if desired.
    • Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Vegetable Add-Ins: Add sautéed spinach, peas, or broccoli for a more balanced meal.
  • Cheese Options: Swap Parmesan with Pecorino Romano for a slightly sharper flavor.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave with a splash of chicken broth to prevent dryness.
