A comforting and easy one-pan meal featuring tender chicken, egg noodles, and a creamy sauce baked to golden perfection in a skillet.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 ounces egg noodles
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
1 cup sour cream
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the egg noodles, chicken broth, whole milk, sour cream, dried thyme, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles start to soften.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir in the thawed peas and shredded cheddar cheese.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 15 minutes, until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
