Description
A quick and easy creamy pasta dish that combines the comforting flavors of classic chicken pot pie with tender noodles and a medley of vegetables, all coated in a rich, velvety sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1½ cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups cooked chicken breasts, shredded
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Cook egg noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1 cup of pasta cooking water before draining. Set noodles aside.
- In the same pot, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add diced yellow onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the thawed frozen mixed vegetables and dried thyme to the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, to warm through.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour over the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, to create a roux. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and heavy cream until the mixture is smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer, whisking frequently, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
- Stir in the shredded cooked chicken, drained egg noodles, salt, pepper, and half of the chopped fresh parsley. Toss gently until all ingredients are thoroughly coated in the creamy sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of the reserved pasta cooking water until desired consistency is reached.
- Let the Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Pasta simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, allowing flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
- Ladle generous portions into serving bowls. Garnish each serving with the remaining fresh chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
