How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Noodle Skillet
1. Cook the Noodles
Boil the egg noodles according to package directions until al dente.
Drain and set aside.
2. Sauté Aromatics
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic, cooking for about 2–3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
3. Add the Veggies
Stir in the peas and carrots and cook for another 2 minutes until warmed through.
4. Make a Roux
Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir constantly for 1–2 minutes to create a roux. This step helps thicken your sauce later.
5. Pour in Liquids
Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, making sure there are no lumps.
Stir in the Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
6. Simmer and Thicken
Let the sauce gently simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.
7. Combine Chicken and Noodles
Add the cooked egg noodles and diced chicken to the skillet.
Toss gently until everything is well coated in the creamy sauce.
8. Finish Cooking
Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the chicken is warmed through and the sauce reaches your desired thickness.
9. Serve and Enjoy
Remove from heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with chopped parsley or a sprinkle of Parmesan if you’d like.
Serve hot and dig in!
