Chicken and Noodles...YUM!

I never make a meal the same way twice. Why? Mainly because I never remember how I made it the last time. I promised Aaron that I would write everything down for him this time (after a tense phone conversation in the grocery store...eeks!). :)

What you'll need:
2 tbsp. Butter
2 tbsp. Flour
1 1/2 c. Milk
1 14.5oz Can of Chicken Broth
1 Can of Cream of Chicken
1 1/2 c. Cooked/Shredded Chicken
Salt/Pepper to taste
Herbed Poultry {I have a pre-mix, use whatever you've got!}

Serve with: Egg noodles mixed in over mashed potatoes

Real cooks/chefs {whatever} will tell you to boil a whole chicken. Yeah, I'm way too lazy for that biznass. Honestly with just two of us in the house we never use a full package of chicken on one meal. The chicken tender slices were on sale so we bought those and split it up for two meals. Anywhodiddle. Boil your chicken until it's completely cooked, remove it from the water and let it cool.

Real purdy...eh?

When the chicken is completely cooled give it a rough chop then you can shred it with two forks or use your fingers to break it apart to look like this:

Pre-shredding...apparently I forgot to get a post-shredding picture but you get the idea...right?

In a sauce pan melt the butter. Add the flour and whisk it in, add the milk and cook on a medium-high heat until the mixture thickens. Whisk in the chicken stock, cream of chicken soup and seasonings. Add the shredded chicken and let it cook for a together. I will sometimes put this in my small crock pot to cook for a few hours if I want time to clean up the mess before company comes over. :)

What the sauce will look like...ish.

Perfecto!

Enjoy!
