Another one of my mom's dinners. I like to use left over chicken from my roasted chicken dinner, but if I don't have any I will poach 1 or 2 chicken breasts, or even been known to be really lazy and use canned cooked chicken. Read more . No matter what this is a easy and filling meal. We like to serve it over garlic mashed potatoes. And again, I don't have a recipe for this, I just wing it(no pun intended) Ingredients:
1 large can (49-1/2oz) chicken broth, (if i've poached some chicken i use the reserved broth from that.) |
2-3 cups water(enough liquid to boil noodles in.) |
1 (16oz) bag mrs. reams homestyle egg noodles (found in the freezer section) |
1 to 1-1/2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or chunked. use any left over chicken you have poached or canned. |
salt/pepper |
3 tbsp. butter |
Directions:
1. In a large pot with the broth & additional water, cook the noodles according to package directions.
2. While noodles are cooking, shred or cube the chicken.
3. When noodles are done add the chicken, salt, pepper and butter.
4. Heat through and serve over mashed potatoes or biscuits.
5. The first night it will be more soup like, but kept in the fridge over night, it thickens up alot. If my husband wants it thicker the first night, he'll add some cornstarch to make it thicker.
