- Prep Time: 10 Minutes
- Cook Time: 20 Minutes
- Total Time: 30 Minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1⁄4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1⁄2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 large carrot, peeled and diced
- 8 ounces wide egg noodles
- 1⁄4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Make the Sauce: Gradually whisk in flour, cooking for 2 minutes to eliminate the raw taste. Slowly pour in chicken broth and milk, whisking constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce thickens, about 5-10 minutes.
- Add Chicken and Veggies: Stir in the shredded chicken, diced carrots, and frozen peas. Let cook for 3-5 minutes until carrots are just tender.
- Cook Noodles: While the sauce is simmering, cook egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain thoroughly.
- Combine and Serve: Toss the cooked noodles into the creamy chicken and veggie sauce. Mix well to coat evenly. Remove from heat, stir in chopped parsley, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Enjoy: Serve immediately to enjoy this rich, one-pot comfort food.
Cooking Tips:
- For a thicker sauce, increase the flour slightly. For a thinner sauce, add a bit more milk.
- Shred or dice the chicken finely for even distribution throughout the dish.
- Cook the pasta just until al dente to prevent it from becoming too soft when mixed with the sauce.
- Let the noodles cool slightly before combining with the sauce to avoid overcooking.
