Ingredients
  

  • 2 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.

  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly reduced.
  • Add the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    Quick and easy! Perfect for a weeknight. I added some veggies.

      I tried this recipe last night and it was sooo good! Adding the veggies was a smart move! 🍽️

    Yummy! But I used spaghetti instead of egg noodles and it was still good!

    Tastes like a heart attack in a bowl, but I ain’t mad about it. Haha!

    How do you cook egg noodles? Always mushy when I try.

    1. 3 stars
      Egg noodles mushy? That’s just wrong! I cook mine for 4 mins max and they’re perfect. Are you boiling water first? 🤔

      You might be overcooking them. Try cooking them for a shorter time next time!

    I tried this and it came out a bit bland. I added some hot sauce, but still not my favorite. Maybe I did something wrong.

    Too greasy for my liking. Chicken was good but the sauce was heavy. Can’t say I will make it again.

    Tried it but didn’t have parmesan, used cheddar instead. Not the same.

      Cheddar is good too! Just a bit different flavor. Next time try the parmesan, it might change your life!

      Really? Cheddar? How did that even work? Parmesan is like a must in this dish! You should try to follow the recipe next time.

    This was sooo good! My kids loved it and asked for seconds. Easy to make too! 5 stars!

      Really? It sounds kind of bland to me. Heavy cream and cheese don’t sound healthy… I’m unsure about the kids asking for seconds.

    2. 5 stars
      I’m glad to hear it was a hit! My kids can be picky, but this seems easy enough to try. Thanks for sharing!

    I don’t really like cream sauces, but this was OK I guess. Didn’t blow my mind.

      I totally get you! Creamy sauces can be a bit heavy. Have you tried adding some lemon juice for freshness? It might change your mind!

    Quick and delicious!

    1. 3 stars
      Wasn’t that impressed, it was too creamy for my taste. Maybe try less cream next time?

      I agree, it’s super quick! Perfect for busy weeknights!

  12. 3 stars
    I dunno, it was kinda bland. Needs more flavor for sure.

    Yum! Great recipe! I didn’t have parmesan so I used cheddar instead and it was delish!

      Using cheddar sounds interesting! I’m definitely gonna try that next time. Thanks for the tip!

    The recipe is fine, but I think it needs more flavor. Maybe some herbs?

    OMG this is the best chicken & noodles I’ve ever made! Thanks!

    My grandma always makes chicken noodle soup, this ain’t it.

    Too much cream! My stomach hurt after. Next time I’ll cut back.

    Was okay, but not like grandma’s chicken noodles! Not enough broth or something.

    Quick and simple, but not enough flavor for my taste. I might add more garlic next time.

    1. 4 stars
      I totally agree! I found it bland too. More garlic would definitely help!

      Ugh, I don’t know how you can call this quick if you gotta cook all that chicken! It took me forever!

    Can I use beef instead of chicken? Asking for my brother.

    1. User avatar Shaddam Corrino IV says:

      4 stars
      Sure, I think beef would work, but it might change the flavor a bit. Just be careful not to overcook it!

    2. User avatar harris.turcotte11 says:

      5 stars
      Why not? I mean, chicken’s good but beef is better for sure! Just gotta cook it longer, right?
