A delicious and easy one-pan chicken recipe served over buttery garlic egg noodles, perfect for a quick weeknight dinner with minimal cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Noodles

  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Season the Chicken: Season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper, ensuring an even coating for flavor.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until they are fully cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside to rest.
  3. Simmer the Noodles: In the same skillet, pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the egg noodles, making sure they are completely submerged in the liquid.
  4. Cook the Noodles: Cover the skillet and let the noodles cook for about 7-8 minutes or until they are al dente and most of the broth has been absorbed.
  5. Prepare Garlic Butter: While the noodles cook, melt the butter in a separate pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, taking care not to burn the garlic.
  6. Combine Flavors: Once the noodles are done, add the garlic butter mixture to the skillet. Stir well to combine and then mix in the grated Parmesan cheese if using, creating a creamy, flavorful sauce.
  7. Serve: Slice the cooked chicken breasts and arrange the pieces on top of the buttery noodles. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately for the best taste.

Notes

  • For a richer and creamier texture, substitute some of the chicken broth with heavy cream.
  • Add vegetables like spinach, peas, or mushrooms to the skillet while cooking the noodles for extra nutrition and flavor.
  • Egg noodles can be replaced with any pasta of your choice if preferred.
