That sounds delicious! A One-Pot Honey Garlic Chicken & Noodles recipe is perfect for a cozy, easy meal. Here’s a simple recipe idea for you:
Ingredients:
- 2 chicken breasts (boneless, skinless), sliced into strips
- 8 oz egg noodles (or pasta of your choice)
- 3-4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
- 1 tbsp butter (optional for extra flavor)
- 1/2 cup chicken broth (or water)
- 1 tsp cornstarch (optional, to thicken the sauce)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Red pepper flakes (optional, for a kick)
Instructions:
- Cook the Chicken: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then add it to the pot. Cook for 5-7 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
- Prepare the Sauce: In the same pot, add the butter and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Add Honey and Soy Sauce: Pour in the honey and soy sauce, stirring well to combine. Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Add Noodles: Once the sauce is simmering, add the noodles to the pot, ensuring they are covered by the liquid. You may need to add a little more broth or water if the noodles aren’t fully submerged. Let the noodles cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they’re tender and have absorbed most of the sauce.
- Thicken the Sauce (optional): If you’d like a thicker sauce, mix 1 tsp of cornstarch with a little water and stir it into the sauce. Let it simmer for another minute or two until the sauce thickens.
- Combine Chicken and Noodles: Add the cooked chicken back into the pot, stirring to combine everything. Let it heat through.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and red pepper flakes (if using). Serve hot!
