Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Egg noodles
- 2 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup Low-fat milk
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Low-fat sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a boil over high heat. Add a pinch of salt.
Once the water is boiling, add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, approximately 8-10 minutes. Drain the noodles and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, pour in the olive oil. Once hot, add the flour, stirring constantly for about 1 minute to create a roux.
Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk until the mixture is smooth, then increase the heat slightly to bring it to a simmer.
Once the mixture begins to thicken, reduce the heat to low and add the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to ensure the flavors meld well together.
Stir in the low-fat sour cream and mix until the gravy is creamy and smooth.
Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary, then turn off the heat.
Serve the egg noodles on a plate or bowl, and ladle the hot gravy over them.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
