Ingredients
  

4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Zest and juice of 1 lemon

Salt and pepper to taste

2 cups chicken broth

8 ounces egg noodles

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sear the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken to the skillet. Sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.

    Add Chicken Broth: In the same skillet, pour in the chicken broth. Scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze, incorporating all the flavorful bits stuck to the pan.

      Cook the Noodles: Bring the broth to a simmer and add the egg noodles. Stir occasionally and cook for about 5 minutes.

        Return Chicken and Flavor: After the noodles have cooked for 5 minutes, return the chicken to the skillet, adding lemon juice and zest. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for an additional 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the noodles have absorbed the broth.

          Finish the Noodles: Once the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Stir in the butter and grated Parmesan cheese into the noodles, stirring until the butter has melted and coated the noodles evenly.

            Serve: Slice the chicken and arrange it over the creamy noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley for an added touch of color and flavor.

                - Presentation Tips: Serve the dish in shallow bowls, ensuring to arrange the sliced chicken beautifully on top of the noodles. Add a slice of lemon on the side as a garnish. For a pop of color, sprinkle extra parsley over the chicken.
