3cupschickencooked and shredded or cut into bite-sized pieces
1 ½cupheavy cream
2cupsegg noodlesuncooked
2cupsbroccoli floretscut into 1-inch pieces
salt to taste
1cupParmesan cheeseshredded
black pepper to taste
Instructions
In a stock pot, melt butter. Add in the onion and cook for a few minutes until translucent. Add in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Sprinkle flour over the onion mixture and cook for 2 minutes while constantly stirring. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth followed by the heavy cream. This will prevent any lumps forming. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add the noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-9 minutes until al dente. Stir occasionally to prevent the noodles from sticking. Add the broccoli and cook for 1-2 more minutes, until tender-crisp. At this point, the noodles will have absorbed some of the liquid, making the soup even thicker.
Add in the chicken and Parmesan cheese. Cook until the cheese is dissolved and the chicken is heated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
