Scale
Main Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 small white onion, finely diced
- 1/2 (8-ounce) container sliced mushrooms (optional)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups low sodium or unsalted chicken broth
- 1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 (8-ounce) package wide egg noodles (about 4 cups)
- 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Sauté Aromatics: Heat the butter over medium heat in a large skillet or Dutch oven with a lid. Add the diced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes until translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for about 3 minutes until lightly browned. Then add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add Liquids and Seasonings: Pour in the chicken broth and cream of chicken soup. Add poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Whisk all ingredients together to create a smooth broth base.
- Cook Noodles: Add the wide egg noodles to the pot and bring the mixture to a boil. Cover and cook for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the noodles are nearly al dente.
- Combine Chicken and Vegetables: Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, and heavy cream. Cook uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and the vegetables are tender to your liking.
- Season and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Allow the dish to cool slightly before serving, noting that the sauce will thicken more as it cools.
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves cooking time and adds rich flavor.
- Mushrooms are optional but add great texture and earthiness.
- For a lower fat option, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or milk, but the sauce will be less rich.
- Ensure the noodles are not overcooked to avoid a mushy texture.
- Feel free to use fresh vegetables instead of frozen mixed vegetables if preferred; adjust cooking time accordingly.
