Ingredients

Scale

Noodles

  • 8 ounces (225g) egg noodles
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Filling

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 cups (300g) cooked chicken, shredded
  • 3 cups (720ml) chicken broth
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup (150g) frozen peas
  • 1/4 cup (40g) all-purpose flour

Topping

  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until tender. Drain the noodles and toss them with olive oil to prevent sticking. Set aside for later use.
  2. Make the filling: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté the vegetables until they become tender and fragrant, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Add chicken and seasonings: Stir in the shredded cooked chicken along with garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme. Cook the mixture for another 2 minutes to allow the spices to become aromatic.
  4. Add broth and cream: Pour the chicken broth and heavy cream into the skillet. Bring the mixture to a simmer while stirring occasionally to combine the ingredients well.
  5. Thicken the sauce: Gradually sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the simmering mixture while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue to simmer the sauce until it thickens, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  6. Combine noodles and peas: Add the cooked egg noodles and frozen peas into the skillet with the thickened filling. Stir until everything is evenly combined and heated through.
  7. Season and serve: Taste and season the dish with salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving hot.

Notes

  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop with a splash of chicken broth to restore creaminess.
  • Chicken: For convenience, use rotisserie chicken or any leftover cooked chicken.
  • Vegetables: You can substitute or add other vegetables like corn or green beans for variety.
  • Spices: Adjust seasonings to your preference and add more herbs if desired for enhanced flavor.
  • Noodles: Any pasta shape such as rotini or penne can be used instead of egg noodles.
  • Gluten-Free Option: Use gluten-free noodles and a gluten-free flour alternative to make the dish gluten-free.
  • Make Ahead: Prepare the filling in advance and refrigerate. Combine with noodles when ready to serve for quicker meal assembly.
