These Creamy Chicken and Noodles are the ultimate comfort food! So when my friend had surgery a week ago, I whipped up a batch of these to take to her. Because the last thing anyone wants to worry about while healing is what to make for dinner! This is also the perfect meal to make anytime you are craving some comfort food. Or when the weather is cold. Or just anytime really! Kids and adults both love it and it is quite easy to throw together! To make it even easier, you can use a rotisserie chicken! Either way, what you end up with is a delicious meal that is sure to warm you right up.

How To Make Creamy Chicken and Noodles
This is just a summary. The full detailed recipe is listed below!
Season 1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs with a salt, pepper and garlic blend. I love this Kinders one, but you can use any kind you like. Or you can use garlic powder, onion powder and salt and pepper. I don’t measure, just make sure the chicken is coated.

In a large pot, heat some butter and olive oil over medium heat. Brown the chicken on both sides for approximately 4-5 minutes. Remove it and set it aside.
*If using a rotisserie chicken, you will skip this step.*
After removing the chicken, add in the vegetables. I usually add an onion but did not have one. Season with salt and pepper. After these have cooked for about 10 minutes, add in the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Add in another tablespoon of butter then whisk in all purpose flour. Let that cook down for 3-4 minutes. Slowly stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Season with dried thyme and parsley. Add some Kinders Roast Chicken seasoning as well (if you can find it. If not, just leave it out.)
Lastly
Stir in a bag of egg noodles an let it come to a boil. After 8 minutes, turn it to low and let it simmer for at least 20 minutes. This is going to allow it to thicken up. Salt to taste if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
