Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 3 cups uncooked extra wide egg noodles
  • 2 cups cooked chicken (rotisserie or leftover)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley, optional for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a Dutch oven or large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Sauté the chopped onion for 4–5 minutes until softened.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  4. Add chicken broth, heavy cream, and condensed soup; stir until smooth and combined.
  5. Increase heat to bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Stir in the egg noodles and simmer uncovered for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  7. Reduce heat as needed to prevent boiling over or drying out before noodles are tender.
  8. Add the cooked chicken and stir until heated through.
  9. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use low-sodium broth and soup if you’re watching salt intake.
  • Adjust creaminess by adding more broth or cream as needed.
  • Do not overcook the noodles—they will soften further after sitting.
  • This dish is best served fresh; leftovers can be reheated with added liquid.
  • Not ideal for freezing due to the cream-based sauce.
