Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 cup diced carrots
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • 2 teaspoons thyme leaves
  • 3/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3 cups low sodium chicken broth, plus extra if needed
  • 1/2 cup whole milk, or 2%, half and half, or heavy cream
  • 6 ounces wide egg noodles
  • 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

Instructions

  • In a 12 inch deep skillet or large pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add in the onion, carrots, and celery. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 4-5 minutes or until they've softened.
  • Stir in the poultry seasoning, garlic powder, thyme leaves and flour. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
  • Slowly pour in the chicken broth and milk, stirring the entire time so lumps don't form.
  • Add in the egg noodles and stir until they're coated in the liquid. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until al dente. If the sauce gets too thick before the noodles have finished cooking, stir in a splash or two of chicken broth to thin the sauce.
  • Add the shredded chicken and peas to the skillet and stir everything together. Cook just until warmed through. Taste for seasoning and serve.
