All the Best Flavors!
Making a classic chicken pot pie requires a lot of effort! From making the pie crust, to waiting for the pie to bake, it’s a time consuming process. That’s why I love this chicken noodle recipe so much! It has all the flavors and textures! The creamy noodles replace the traditional pie crust. The sauce is loaded with peas, corn, carrots and even mushrooms. The chicken breast is juicy and chunky and so flavorful!
If you’re looking for a great chicken breast recipe, this is the one! I recommend cutting the breasts into larger pieces for best results. The sauce will do the rest of the work, keeping the meat juicy!
Ultimate Comfort Food
This warming pasta dish is everything that I crave for once the leaves start turning yellow and the evenings get chilly! That happens pretty late here in California; it stays warm well into November, but I still love to enjoy creamy comfort foods like this chicken dish. It has all those comforting, warming flavors and textures you crave for when the weather gets cold! My chicken pot pie noodles will warm you (and a large crowd!) right up! I love that this recipe yields a good amount of pasta, perfect for reheating the next day.

Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Noodles Recipe (video)
Ingredients
- 1 to 1 1/2 lbs chicken breast tenders
- sea salt and black pepper, to taste
- 8 to 10 white mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup diced Canadian bacon
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 extra-large onion, diced
- 2 celery sticks, diced
- 1 cup diced carrots; about 2 large
- 4 minced garlic cloves
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup canned corn, drained
- 1 cup frozen sweet peas
- freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
- 1 pound wide egg noodles
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil for the noodles. Once the water comes to a boil, add the noodles and cook according to package instructions. Drain and keep warm until the sauce is done.
- Meanwhile, prepare the chicken and sauce. Preheat a large saute pan over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Cut the chicken tenders into 1-inch cubes and add to the heated pan. Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper. Cook the chicken for 7 to 8 minutes, until cooked through and golden brown. Remove the chicken into a clean bowl.
- Into the same pan, add the mushrooms and diced Canadian bacon. Saute the mushrooms and bacon on medium heat for about 5 minutes, until the mushrooms are golden brown and the bacon is rendered. Remove the mixture from the pan and add to the chicken.
- In the same pan, melted the 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Once the butter is melted, add the diced onion, carrot, celery and minced garlic. Saute the mixture over medium-low heat for about 8 minutes, until the onion and carrot is tender but not browned. Next, add in the flour and stir until the flour is well incorporated; cook for 1 minute.
- Next, add the milk and chicken broth and return the chicken, mushrooms and bacon to the pan. Cook the sauce over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5 to 6 minutes until the sauce is thickened. Keep the sauce over medium heat and add the corn and sweet peas; they will thaw in the hot sauce. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Pour the sauce over the drained noodles and add a sprinkle of chopped parsley. Toss the sauce and noodles together until the noodles are well coated, then enjoy!
We made this recipe according to the recipe details. The vegetables were raw even after we tried baking this in the oven at 375 degrees for an additional 35 minutes to soften the vegetables. They tasted raw and uncooked.
After we reviewed the video we noticed that recipe had a typo on it. In the video the vegetables were sauteed on medium-high heat but the recipe details said medium-low heat. We will try this recipe again using the updated video instructions.
Hi Ed! I’m sorry the dish didn’t turn out perfectly for you! The heat for cooking the vegetables doesn’t make too big of a difference. You’ll want to sauté the veggies until they’re softened and almost cooked (step 4). I don’t recommend adding raw, uncooked vegetables straight into the dish. Hope the next try is better!
