Ingredients

Scale

Protein and Vegetables

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped garlic
  • 12 oz frozen assorted vegetables

Dairy and Sauces

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk

Seasonings and Staples

  • 1 tbsp chicken bouillon granules
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt and ground black pepper, as needed

Pasta

  • 12 oz egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Cook the Egg Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until just al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté Onion and Season Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add diced onion and sauté for 2-4 minutes until softened. Add the chicken chunks, then season with chicken bouillon granules, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the chicken evenly with the seasonings.
  3. Add Vegetables and Garlic: When the chicken is almost cooked through, add frozen assorted vegetables to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for about 5 minutes until vegetables are heated through and tender. Add the chopped garlic and cook for 30-45 seconds until fragrant to enhance flavor without burning the garlic.
  4. Make the Creamy Sauce: Add condensed cream of chicken soup, condensed cream of mushroom soup, and milk to the skillet. Stir until fully combined then reduce heat to low. Let it simmer gently for a few minutes until heated through and slightly thickened. Turn off the heat.
  5. Combine Noodles and Serve: Add the drained egg noodles to the skillet with the creamy chicken and vegetable mixture. Stir well to coat the noodles evenly with the sauce. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • For best results, do not overcook the noodles; they should be slightly firm to hold texture when combined with the sauce.
  • You can substitute frozen vegetables with fresh seasonal vegetables if preferred, adjusting cooking time accordingly.
  • Use low-sodium chicken bouillon and soups if you want to control salt intake.
  • Adding fresh herbs like parsley or thyme at the end can enhance the flavor.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
