Easy One Pot Chicken and Noodles

30 min

This chicken and noodles recipe is a time-saving family meal that's made all in one pot in just 30 minutes! It has tender chicken and buttery egg noodles all smothered in a creamy sauce.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 medium onion (chopped)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy/whipping cream
  • 1 (10.5) ounce can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 3 cups uncooked egg noodles (extra wide size)
  • 2 cups cooked chicken (I used rotisserie)
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)
  • Chopped fresh parsley (optional, to taste)

Directions

  1. 1

    In a Dutch oven or pot, sauté the onion in the butter for 4-5 minutes over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Add in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and cream of mushroom soup. Stir until combined and increase the heat to high.

  4. 4

    Once it's boiling, add in the egg noodles. Cook for 10 minutes, uncovered, stirring fairly often. Turn the heat down (to medium or even medium-low) to maintain a rapid simmer (not a furious boil). You don't want the liquid to reduce too much before the pasta has cooked. See notes below for troubleshooting tips.

  5. 5

    Stir in the chicken and let it warm through, then season with salt & pepper as needed and top with fresh parsley if using. Serve immediately.
