Ingredients
  

  • 12 ounces egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 large yellow onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1½ cups frozen mixed vegetables thawed
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast shredded
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • OPTIONAL GARNISH
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped

Method
 

  1. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until tender but still firm, then drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the diced onion, minced garlic, and thawed mixed vegetables. Season with thyme, about ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Sauté until the onions soften, about 5 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat everything evenly. Slowly pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring continuously as the sauce thickens; simmer gently for around 5 minutes until creamy.
  4. Toss the cooked noodles and shredded chicken into the skillet, stirring everything together to fully coat with the luscious sauce. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
  5. For a fresh finish, sprinkle chopped parsley over the top before serving to add a burst of color and flavor.

Notes

  • Use half & half instead of heavy cream if you want a lighter dish. Try chicken thighs instead of breast for a richer taste. Add extra veggies like broccoli and peas for more texture. Spice it up with a pinch of red pepper flakes or cayenne. Rotisserie chicken works great to save time. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat by microwaving or gently warming on the stove, adding a splash of cream or broth to revive the creamy sauce.
