Ingredients

Scale

Gathering the ingredients for this recipe is a breeze. Here’s what you’ll need:

  • 12 ounces of egg noodles
  • 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon of olive oil
  • 2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Substitutions are welcome here! If you’re out of egg noodles, any pasta will do. And if you’re not a fan of Parmesan, try using your favorite cheese. Cooking at home is about flexibility and making it work with what you have.

Instructions

Ready to get cooking? Follow these steps, and you’ll have a delicious meal in no time:

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss to coat with the garlic butter. Add the drained noodles to the skillet and gently mix everything together until well combined.
  5. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and parsley, if using. Toss again to ensure the cheese melts into the noodles.
  6. Serve hot and enjoy the cozy, buttery goodness!

Pro tip: Make sure not to overcook the garlic. We want it to infuse the butter with flavor without turning bitter.
