Ingredients
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
8 ounces wide egg noodles
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring constantly to make a roux. Cook for 2 minutes until the roux is lightly golden.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Add the dried thyme, dried parsley, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the egg noodles to the skillet.
Cover the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the gravy has thickened.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot.
