Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 small boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves (about 1 1/4 pounds total), pounded 1/2 inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
10 ounces button mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced (4 cups)
2 shallots, thinly sliced (1 cup)
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
2 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 1/2 ounces medium or broad curly egg noodles (about 2 1/2 cups)
3 ounces cream cheese (2/3 cup), room temperature
Fresh parsley leaves, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large straight-sided skillet over medium-high; swirl in 2 tablespoons oil. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes a side; transfer to a plate. Add mushrooms to skillet, season, and cook, stirring, until beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Add shallots and remaining 1 tablespoon oil; cook until translucent, 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in mustard, broth, and noodles; bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer 3 minutes. Uncover; stir in cream cheese. Cook, stirring, until noodles are tender and sauce coats a spoon, about 3 minutes. Return chicken to skillet and cook through, about 1 minute more. Serve, sprinkled with parsley.
