Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Vegetables

  • 12 oz frozen mixed vegetables (such as Birds Eye mixed vegetables)
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (Kerrygold recommended)
  • 3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch chunks
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp freshly minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp chicken bouillon granules
  • 1/2 tsp paprika

Creamy Sauce

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup

For Serving

  • 12 oz egg noodles

Instructions

  1. Cook the Egg Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until just al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté Onion and Chicken: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add diced onion and sauté for 2-4 minutes until it begins to soften. Add the chicken chunks, then season with chicken bouillon granules, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly.
  3. Add Vegetables and Garlic: When the chicken is nearly cooked through, add the frozen mixed vegetables to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for about 5 minutes until vegetables are tender. Add minced garlic and cook for 30-45 seconds until fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
  4. Incorporate Sauces and Simmer: Stir in the condensed cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, and milk. Mix thoroughly, reduce heat to low, and allow the sauce to gently simmer for a few minutes until slightly thickened. Then turn off the heat.
  5. Combine with Noodles and Serve: Add the drained egg noodles to the skillet, stirring gently to coat them fully with the creamy chicken and vegetable sauce. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use whole milk for extra creaminess, but you can substitute with 2% milk for a lighter version.
  • Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper according to your taste preference.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute the condensed soups and noodles with gluten-free versions.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, warm gently on the stovetop or microwave, adding a splash of milk if needed to loosen the sauce.
