Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 8 ounces Egg noodles
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Frozen peas
- 1 medium Carrot, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Start by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and chicken pieces. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the chicken starts to brown slightly and the carrots begin to soften.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Add the egg noodles to the pot, stirring to make sure they are submerged. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the noodles are tender.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, frozen peas, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture cook for an additional 3-4 minutes to heat through.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
