Tips for Success

  • Chicken Thighs vs. Chicken Breasts: While chicken breasts are lean and cook quickly, using chicken thighs can add more flavor and moisture. If you opt for thighs, cook them for about 8-9 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Add Vegetables: To make this dish even more nutritious, consider adding vegetables like steamed broccoli, sautéed spinach, or peas to your noodles. The veggies will complement the buttered noodles and make the meal even more colorful and filling.
  • Customize the Sauce: For extra richness, you can make a quick cream sauce by adding a little heavy cream to the buttered noodles. This turns the dish into a creamy chicken pasta, which is perfect for those craving something extra indulgent.
  • Make it Spicy: If you enjoy a bit of heat, add red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce to the noodles or chicken for a spicy kick.

Storing Leftovers

  • Refrigerating: Store any leftover Chicken with Buttered Noodles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • Reheating: To reheat, place the chicken and noodles in a skillet over low heat. Add a small amount of butter or a splash of broth to prevent the noodles from drying out, and warm through until heated completely.
