Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks

Vegetables

  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped garlic
  • 12 oz frozen assorted vegetables

Dairy & Fats

  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup milk

Pantry Essentials

  • 1 tbsp chicken bouillon granules
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • salt and ground black pepper, as needed
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 12 oz egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized chunks. Dice the yellow onion and finely chop the garlic. Measure out the frozen vegetables and other ingredients.
  2. Sauté Chicken and Aromatics: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken chunks and cook until they begin to brown, about 5-7 minutes. Add the diced onion and garlic, sautéing until fragrant and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add Vegetables and Seasoning: Stir in the frozen assorted vegetables, chicken bouillon granules, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to thaw and flavors to blend.
  4. Mix in Soups and Milk: Pour in the condensed cream of mushroom soup and cream of chicken soup, stirring well to combine. Add the milk gradually, stirring until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Simmer gently for 5 minutes to warm through.
  5. Cook the Egg Noodles: In a separate pot, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente, typically 7-8 minutes. Drain the noodles thoroughly.
  6. Combine Pasta and Sauce: Add the drained noodles to the skillet with the creamy chicken and vegetable mixture. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly. Cook together for an additional 2-3 minutes so the dish is heated through and flavors meld.
  7. Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add fresh thyme or parsley as garnish.
  • You can substitute the frozen vegetables with fresh vegetables like peas, carrots, and corn.
  • Using low-fat or fat-free soups and milk can reduce calorie and fat content.
  • This dish can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently to avoid drying out the creamy sauce.
