Preparation

Step 1

1. Heat a drizzle of olive oil and a Tablespoon or two of butter in a pan. Brown your chicken breasts and remove from pan. (I sprinkled my chicken with freshly ground pepper and garlic salt!)

2. In the SAME PAN (don’t rinse it or clean it out!!) add your cream cheese (chunked), butter, milk, and cheese.

Tip- I used a whisk to combine my ingredients, as the cream cheese can be difficult to incorporate at first.

3. While your sauce is working, drop your noodles into boiling water and cook until al dente, or until your liking. (I actually prefer my noodles to have a little less bite.)

4. Drain your noodles (but don’t rinse them!) and add the noodles to the pan of sauce, and stir to combine.
