Ingredients
– 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 8 ounces egg noodles
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions
Creating Chicken with Buttered Noodles is straightforward if you follow these simple steps:
1. Cook the Noodles: In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
2. Prepare the Chicken: While the noodles are cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
3. Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and rest on a plate.
4. Cook Garlic: In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute, being careful not to burn the garlic.
5. Add Chicken Broth: Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Return the chicken to the skillet, covering it with the broth. Allow it to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes.
6. Combine Noodles: Add the drained egg noodles to the skillet. Toss gently to coat them in the garlic butter sauce and heat through.
7. Slice the Chicken: Slice the cooked chicken breasts into thin strips and place them on top of the noodles.
8. Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese, if desired, before serving.
