Description

A simple, comforting cafeteria-style noodle dish cooked in savory chicken stock and finished with cream of chicken soup and butter.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups chicken stock (homemade or low-sodium store-bought)
  • 1 chicken bouillon cube (optional)
  • 16 ounces egg noodles
  • 10.5 ounces cream of chicken soup (one standard can)
  • 1 stick (½ cup) salted butter
  • Parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Pour chicken stock into a large pot and add the chicken bouillon cube. Heat over medium-high until simmering.
  2. Add egg noodles to the simmering stock and return to a boil, stirring to prevent sticking.
  3. Stir in cream of chicken soup and let boil for 2 minutes until thinned and integrated.
  4. Remove from heat, add butter on top, cover, and let sit for 2–3 minutes until butter melts.
  5. Stir gently to coat noodles in sauce, adjust seasoning, and garnish with parsley if desired.
