Quick and Easy Chicken in a Parmesan White Sauce image

I don't recall where I got this recipe but this is a quick and easy weeknight dinner. My family loves this dish. You can also just make the noodles and use as a side dish. Also freezes well.

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 ounces wide egg noodles
1 (1 1/4 ounce) package hidden valley ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup half-and-half (may take more)
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, add more if you like
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine
4 whole boneless chicken breasts
8 ounces ranch dressing

Steps:

  • Cut chicken into bite size pieces.
  • Marinate chicken in the 8 ounces of ranch dressing. Marinate for 30 minutes. I normally marinate for about 8 hours (I leave it in the fridge while I am at work).
  • Cook chicken until done.
  • While chicken is cooking, cook egg noodles according to package directions.
  • Drain and add butter.
  • Add the ranch packet, half and half and parmesan cheese and mix well.
  • Add chicken to noodle mixture and serve.
  • If you want a creamier sauce add more half and half. Or if you like more cheese, add it.
  • This also freezes well if you undercook the noodles before freezing.
  • When ready to cook, thaw in the fridge the night before and reheat in the microwave. You may need to add more half and half when reheating.
