Ingredients
Scale

3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
8 oz egg noodles
3 tbsp butter
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions
Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then cook for 5–6 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
Prepare the Noodles: In the same skillet, sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Add chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring to a simmer. Add egg noodles, cover, and cook for 8–10 minutes until tender.
Combine: Stir in butter and Parmesan until fully melted and creamy. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for a few minutes.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.

Substitute chicken breasts with thighs for a juicier option.
Adjust seasoning or add chili flakes for a spicy kick.
