  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 oz wide egg noodles
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Chopped fresh parsley, to taste (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook 5–6 minutes until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter and sauté garlic for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir in Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  5. Add egg noodles, pressing into the liquid. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer 8–10 minutes until noodles are tender.
  6. Return chicken to the skillet and stir in Parmesan cheese. Cook 2–3 minutes until sauce thickens and coats everything.
  7. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use chicken thighs for extra juiciness.
  • Stir noodles occasionally to prevent sticking.
  • Add a splash of broth if sauce thickens too quickly.
  • Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days.
