One Pot Creamy Chicken and Noodles
Classic chicken and noodles with vegetables in a creamy, cheesy sauce, all cooked in one pot for easy clean up.
Servings: 5 servings
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 Small yellow or white onion diced
- 3 Medium carrots peeled and sliced
- 2 Celery stalks sliced
- 1 tablespoon Minced garlic
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 10 ounces Cream of chicken soup
- 1 1/4 cup Nonfat milk (fill the chicken soup can)
- 2 cups Low sodium chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon Dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 8 ounces Dry fettuccine pasta about 1/2 of a regular box
- 1 1/2 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a 5 quart pot or deep saute pan. Add chopped vegetables and minced garlic. Saute over medium-high heat for about five minutes, or until vegetables are just becoming tender.
- Add chicken and season with salt and pepper. Continue to saute over medium heat until chicken is no longer pink on the outside. It does not have to be cooked through since it will continue to cook in the sauce.
- Stir in cream of chicken soup, milk (fill the chicken soup can), chicken broth, pasta and dry seasonings.
- Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to low. Simmer uncovered for about 20 minutes or until pasta is tender, stirring every five minutes to keep pasta from sticking together.
- Once pasta is cooked to al dente, remove from heat and stir in 1 cup of cheddar cheese until melted. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Cover pot and let rest for 5-10 minutes to thicken the sauce.
- Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for garnish.
