  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Step-By-Step Instructions

Preparing the Chicken

  1. Dice the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Season the Chicken: Lightly sprinkle salt and pepper over the chicken pieces.

Sautéing the Base

  1. Heat the Oil: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken to the pot, cooking until it is browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the diced onion and garlic to the pot, cooking until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  4. Add Mixed Vegetables: Stir in the mixed vegetables, letting them cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Building the Dish

  1. Pour in the Broth: Add the chicken broth to the pot and bring it to a boil.
  2. Add the Noodles: Stir in the egg noodles, ensuring they are submerged in the broth.
  3. Season and Simmer: Add the dried thyme, adjusting salt and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked.

Final Touches

  1. Stir in Cream: Add the heavy cream, stirring until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
  2. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top for a burst of color and flavor.
