Ready in about 30 minutes, this creamy Chicken Noodle Skillet recipe is a perfect family dinner recipe for busy weeknights!
Hey howdy hey, I finally have a non-dessert recipe to share with you. This one is plain old fashioned comfort food. Nothing fancy, just pasta, chicken, and veggies. I found it in one of my Taste of Home cookbooks, then did some serious adapting it to make the preparation much easier.
The original recipe called for cooking the pasta in one pan, the veggies in one pan, and a white sauce in another pan. I tried it that way, and it was yummy- but way too many dishes to wash!
I tweaked the recipe so the whole recipe is now made in one skillet. Woohoo! So much easier and quicker, and it tastes just the same! I love that it calls for ingredients that I usually have on hand.
The thyme gives this chicken noodle casserole a rich and yummy flavor, so I really recommend not leaving it out. My family really enjoys this simple and flavorful recipe, and I bet yours will too.
