FAQ

Can I use rotisserie chicken?
Yes—rotisserie chicken works perfectly and saves extra prep time.

Can I swap the veggies?
Absolutely. Mixed vegetables, corn, or green beans all work well.

How can I make the dish lighter?
Use half-and-half instead of heavy cream for a lighter sauce.

Can I make this ahead?
It’s best fresh, but you can prep the sauce and chicken ahead and add noodles just before serving.

What noodles work besides egg noodles?
Wide egg noodles work best, but rotini or bowties can be used in a pinch.
