Method
 

How to Make Chicken with Buttered Noodles
  1. Start by gathering your ingredients. Chop garlic finely and, if desired, slice bell peppers or broccoli for additional flavor and nutrition.
  2. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then sear them until golden brown, approximately 5 minutes per side.
  3. Stir in the chopped garlic and sauté for about 1 minute. Then pour in chicken broth and bring to a gentle boil.
  4. Add the egg noodles directly to the skillet, stirring to combine well. Let it simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until cooked al dente.
  5. Remove from heat and stir in any remaining butter until it melts into a smooth, creamy sauce. Garnish generously with fresh parsley before serving.
