Chicken and Noodles
These creamy, dreamy noodles are the perfect way to get picky eaters to eat their chicken and veggies! Once I realized how much people loved my super popular beef and noodles recipe, I knew I had to create another one just for chicken! Wait until you taste this cream sauce. It’s so flavorful and has a really nice cheddar cheese blend that combines regular cheddar with white cheddar. Cream of mushroom soup adds a nice casserole element to this dish, but unlike my chicken noodle casserole recipe, this recipe is fully prepared on the stove top with no need for baking.
How to Make It
See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions. Cut the chicken in half lengthwise to create 2-3 thinner slices. Pat dry and season each side with Italian seasoning and salt/pepper. Sear in olive oil on each side for about 4-5 minutes. Set aside. Melt butter in the same skillet and stir in the flour, continue to stir for 1-2 minutes. Add the sauce mixture in small splashes, stirring continuously.
Stir in the cream of mushroom soup. Let the sauce simmer and reduce while you bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Prepare noodles according to package instructions. Stir in the mixed vegetables and let them heat through for 5 minutes.
Add the shredded cheese over low heat and stir to combine. Add the diced chicken.
Add the cooked noodles and stir to combine. Serve!
Storage
Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. This does freeze/reheat well, just be sure not to overcook the pasta.
3.5 quart enameled cast iron skillet– This is what I use to make this recipe, and is what’s featured in the process shots above Cheese Grater– Always shred your cheese from a block for soups and sauces, it melts and tastes much better than packaged shredded cheese. Food Storage Containers– These are what I use to freeze leftovers, they fit exactly 1 cup and are leak proof, microwave safe, stackable, and BPA free. Measuring Spoons– I have these magnetic ones which stay nice and organized in my utensil drawer. Pinch Bowls– for measuring out seasonings ahead of time.
