GOlden CREAMY CHICKEN NOodles

3/15/2022

NGL, this dish is totally inspired by the creamy chicken Maruchan Ramen packets I used to eat as a child!! I remember when they first came out with the creamy flavor my family went crazy over it and we literally ate it EVERY day after school for weeks.

The recipe concept is basically to cook noodles in chicken broth on the stove and then once the broth has reduced, add butter and cream to make a lush, creamy chicken flavored sauce!! It's so freaking good. A little tricky with what size and shape noodles you use so pay attention to the tip where I mention to drain out some broth if there's too much in the skillet by the time the noodles are finished.

Last thing -- the noodles are not meant to be al dente, they're supposed to be slightly overcooked and pretty soft.
Picture
What you need:
  • 2 cups noodles (smaller flatter shapes work best)
  • 2 - 2 1/2 cups chicken broth (enough so that the noodles are mostly covered in the skillet.)
  • *1 tsp salt if using unsalted broth
  • 2-3 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • Chicken seasoning (optional for extra flavor)
  • Parmesan cheese for topping
What to do:
  1. ​Add the pasta and broth to a large and deep skillet and bring to a boil using the high heat setting on the stove. (I used a 12" non-stick skillet.) 
  2. Once boiling, turn the heat to medium and let it continue to boil for as long as the cooking instructions say on the packaging of the pasta that you're using. The broth should evaporate and decrease by at least half or more. (If there's a ton of excess broth, you can discard some of it using a strainer.)
  3. Once the broth has been reduced and the noodles are done cooking, add the butter and heavy cream. Keep the heat on medium and stir the pasta on and off while cooking for 4-5 more minutes. The butter will melt and the cream will thicken and you should have a super luscious sauce texture.
  4. Optional but I seasoned with a pinch or two of chicken seasoning here. (I used Trader Joe's chicken-less chicken seasoning which has been discontinued but the taste is veryyy similar to a chicken bouillon cube or powder if you want to use that!)
  5. Top with parmesan cheese and serve hot!

How is the easiest way to measure long flat noddles in cups? I have some tagliatelle I was going to use but not sure about cups - the box is 16 ounces so perhaps 1/2 the box?
