Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 10 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 sweet onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 1/2 cups frozen peas and carrots, thawed
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken breast, cut into small cubes
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles al dente following the package instructions, ensuring they are tender but still firm. Drain the noodles and set them aside to be added later.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the diced sweet onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and thawed peas and carrots. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 3 minutes until the onions become soft and translucent, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Make Sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to combine evenly. Gradually pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer. Continue stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Serve: Add the cooked noodles and cubed chicken breast to the skillet with the sauce and vegetables. Gently mix everything until fully combined and heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot and enjoy your comforting chicken pot pie noodle dish!
Notes
- Ensure noodles are cooked al dente to prevent them from becoming mushy in the sauce.
- You can substitute frozen mixed vegetables with fresh if preferred.
- For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop.
- Adding shredded cheese on top before serving can enhance the flavor.
