Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breasts (boneless, skinless)
- 8 cups Chicken broth
- 2 cups Flour
- 3 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 1 tablespoon Butter (unsalted)
- 1.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Parsley (chopped, optional)
Directions
Step 1
Begin by cooking the chicken. Add the chicken breasts and 8 cups of chicken broth to a large pot. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer. Let the chicken cook for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked through.
Step 2
While the chicken cooks, prepare the noodles. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. Make a well in the center and crack the eggs into it.
Step 3
Add the milk to the eggs and whisk with a fork, gradually incorporating the flour to form a dough.
Step 4
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. Cover with a clean towel and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Step 5
On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a pizza cutter or sharp knife to cut the dough into thin noodle strips (approximately 1/4-inch wide). Let the noodles dry slightly while you finish the chicken.
Step 6
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pot and shred it into bite-sized pieces using two forks. Reserve the broth in the pot.
Step 7
Add the shredded chicken back to the pot of broth. Stir in 1 tablespoon of butter, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and the black pepper. Bring the mixture back to a gentle boil.
Step 8
Drop the noodles into the boiling broth a few at a time, stirring so they don’t stick together. Let the noodles cook for 7-10 minutes, or until soft and tender.
Step 9
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
