Instructions

Step 1: Sauté the Vegetables

  1. Heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute, stirring frequently.

Step 2: Add the Chicken and Flour

  1. Stir in the 2 cups of shredded chicken.
  2. Sprinkle the 1/4 cup of flour over the mixture and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. This helps thicken the sauce.

Step 3: Create the Sauce

  1. Gradually pour in the 4 cups of chicken broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
  2. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.

Step 4: Add the Remaining Ingredients

  1. Stir in the 1 cup of frozen peas, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
  2. Add the 8 oz of egg noodles to the pot, ensuring they are fully submerged in the liquid.

Step 5: Simmer Until Thickened

  1. Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked and the sauce has thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

  1. Remove the pot from the heat and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
  2. Serve hot and enjoy this comforting, hearty meal!

Tips and Variations

  • Add More Veggies: Toss in diced potatoes, corn, or green beans for extra flavor and nutrition.
  • Make It Creamier: Add an extra 1/4 cup of heavy cream or a splash of milk for a richer sauce.
  • Use Rotisserie Chicken: Save time by using store-bought rotisserie chicken.
  • Make It Gluten-Free: Substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend and use gluten-free noodles.
