Instructions
-
Prepare the Chicken: Begin by slicing the boneless chicken breast halves into thinner pieces. This will not only help in tenderizing the meat but also ensure that they cook evenly and quickly.
-
Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once the butter has melted and is sizzling, add the chicken pieces to the pan. Brown the chicken on both sides, ensuring they develop a nice golden crust. If desired, you can substitute with cooking spray, like PAM, to reduce the fat content while still achieving a similar effect.
-
Add the Gravy: After the chicken is browned to perfection, it’s time to enhance the flavor. Pour in your preferred gravy mixture, which you can prepare according to the instructions on the package. For a thicker consistency, gradually incorporate milk as directed, stirring well to combine. This will create a rich and savory sauce that complements the chicken beautifully.
-
Incorporate Mushrooms: Once the gravy is well mixed and bubbling, open a can of mushrooms and gently add them to the skillet. Stir the mushrooms into the gravy and chicken, allowing the flavors to meld together. Let this mixture simmer for about 5 to 10 minutes, ensuring the chicken is cooked through and absorbs the flavors of the gravy.
-
Cook the Egg Noodles: While the chicken is simmering, bring a separate pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until they are tender but firm. Once cooked, drain the noodles and set aside.
-
Serve the Dish: To serve, plate a generous helping of egg noodles and top them with the savory chicken and mushroom gravy. Make sure to spoon extra gravy over the noodles for added flavor.
