Common Questions About This Recipe

→ Can I start with uncooked chicken?
Absolutely. Sauté cut chicken in butter first, take it out, then mix it back later.
→ Which noodles are best for this?
Egg noodles are great, but other types work just fine too.
→ Can I store this in the freezer?
Not ideal. Cream and noodles don't hold up well when frozen.
→ How do I make the soup less heavy?
Swap out cream for half-and-half and cut down on butter.
→ How long does it stay fresh?
Keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days. Warm slowly when reheating.
