This dish is wonderfully satisfying on its own, but you can pair it with some buttery corn on the cob for a true Midwestern meal. A side salad with crisp greens and a light vinaigrette can balance out the richness
of the chicken and noodles. And if you’re looking to cozy up even more, a slice of warm crusty bread to mop up the savory broth is always a hit at our table.
Amish Chicken and Noodles
Servings: 6
Ingredients
1.5 pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 cups chicken broth
1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
12 oz of egg noodles
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup frozen peas (optional)
Directions
Place the chicken breasts at the bottom of your slow cooker.
Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring the chicken is almost covered.
Add the cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is tender and easily shredded.
Shred the chicken using two forks, directly in the slow cooker.
Stir in the egg noodles, butter, and heavy cream.
Cover and cook on high for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until the noodles are cooked to al dente.
Stir in the frozen peas, if using, and let them warm through for about 5 minutes.
Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed, then serve warm.
