Ingredients
For the Main Dish
- 12 ounces egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Cook the Noodles
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook according to the package instructions until just tender.
Drain the noodles and set them aside. Tossing them with a small amount of butter can help prevent sticking while you prepare the sauce.
Tip: Slightly undercook the noodles by about one minute, as they will continue cooking when combined with the sauce.
Step 2: Sauté the Vegetables
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add:
- Onion
- Carrots
- Celery
Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften and the onions become translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
This vegetable mixture forms the classic flavor foundation associated with traditional chicken pot pie.
