Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb chicken (roughly two pieces)
1 onion, chopped
2 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp butter
1 pkg 8 oz. veggies
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 pkg 16 oz noodles
1 tsp chicken bouillon
salt and pepper to taste
COOKING LIQUID
4 qt water
1 tsp salt (seasoned gives extra flavor)
2 tsp chicken seasoning
1/2 tsp pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tsp tarragon, dried

Steps:

  • 1. I use what ever chicken is on sale (usualy thighs) for this recipe. Place the chicken in a large pot with all the ingredients for the cooking liquid and cook on High for 35 min. Remove the chicken and set aside to cool and shred, reserving the liquid.
  • 2. Melt 1 tbls of the butter in a skillet and saute the onion and garlic on Med until soft (about 5 min).
  • 3. Combine 2 cups of the reserved liquid with the cornstarch and chicken bouillon. Set aside. Heat remaing liquid to a boil and cook the noodles as directed on the package. I like to use wide egg noodles.
  • 4. While the noodles are cooking add shredded chicken, 2 cups of the reserved liquid and the frozen veggies to the onion and garlic in the skillet. Simmer on Med-High for 5 min.
  • 5. Add the cornstach liquid to the chicken mixture and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, stirring continualy. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
  • 6. When the noodles are done drain off the liquid. Add remaining Tbls of butter to the noodles and stir to coat.
  • 7. At this point you can either combine it all together in the pot of noodles or plate the noodles and top with the chicken mixture.
  • 8. Enjoy!
