A comforting one-pan meal featuring tender chicken, egg noodles, and a rich, savory gravy all cooked together in a skillet for an easy and delicious dinner.
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
8 ounces wide egg noodles
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring constantly to form a roux, and cook for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
Add the dried thyme, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then add the egg noodles and the browned chicken pieces back into the skillet.
Cover and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are tender and the gravy has thickened.
Remove the skillet from heat and let it sit uncovered for 2 minutes before serving.
