Easy Creamy Chicken & Noodles
One of my favorite dinner recipes. Takes about 25 minutes to prepare.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp butter or margarine
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts May use cooked chicken breasts.
- 1/3 cup finely chopped onion
- 1-3/4 cups chicken broth or 1 14-1/2 oz can
- 2 cups frozen peas and carrots
- 1/2 package egg noodles, uncooked
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 3/4 cup milk
- 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- In a heavy 5-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Then add chicken and onion and cook 5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. (I use cooked chicken and just heat it up together.)
- Add chicken broth and heat to boiling.
- Stir in uncooked pasta and vegetables. Stir to coat evenly with liquid.
- Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Cover; simmer on medium heat 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until most liquid is absorbed.
- Meanwhile, in medium bowl, stir together soup, milk and 1/2 cup cheese until smooth. Stir into pasta mixture.
- Simmer until heated through.
- Serve sprinkled with remaining cheese.
