Vejledning

Sear the Chicken:

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Season the chicken with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Sear for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown with a crisp outer layer. Remove and set aside.

Prepare the Sauce & Noodles:

In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and melt the butter.

Sauté the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring well.

Bring to a gentle simmer, then add the egg noodles. Cover and let them cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Thicken & Combine:

If the sauce is too thin, mix cornstarch with water and stir it in to thicken.

Stir in the Parmesan cheese and black pepper, ensuring a creamy consistency.

Return the seared chicken to the pan, spooning the sauce over it. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Serve & Garnish:

Sprinkle with fresh parsley and a touch of black pepper.

Serve warm with extra Parmesan on the side.
