Ingredients
Scale
1½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon paprika
3 tablespoons butter
½ medium yellow onion (diced)
4 celery ribs (diced)
4 medium carrots (peeled and sliced into rounds)
3 teaspoons garlic (minced)
10 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 (10.5 ounce) cans condensed cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon ground sage
¼ teaspoon rosemary
2 bay leaves
16 ounces frozen egg noodles
Instructions
Remove the frozen egg noodles from the freezer and thaw on the counter.
Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise, seasoning both sides with black pepper, Italian seasoning, onion powder, and paprika.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side, then remove it and chop it into bite-sized pieces.
In the same pot, add butter and melt it. Then add onions, celery, carrots, and garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until soft.
Pour in the chicken broth and cream of chicken soup. Stir in black pepper, thyme, sage, and rosemary. Mix well and add bay leaves on top. Bring to a simmer.
Separate the egg noodles and add them to the pot along with the cooked chicken. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the noodles reach your desired texture.
Before serving, be sure to remove the bay leaves.
Notes
Garnish with fresh parsley or Parmesan cheese. Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
