This Copycat Noodles and Company Parmesan Chicken and Buttered Noodles recipe is a quick way to make one of your favorites at home!

It has been hard to find the motivation to make meals during the summer! The kids are home from school, it’s hot outside and there is no schedule.

So, I was trying to figure out what to make for dinner when I remembered that I had some leftover grilled chicken in the freezer and decided to make a quick version of Noodles and Company’s Parmesan Chicken and Buttered Noodles.

How To Make Parmesan Chicken and Buttered Noodles

Step One:

Start with the chicken.

I took leftover, grilled chicken out of the freezer, added a little water, covered it loosely and heated it in the microwave until the chicken thawed completely.

To use raw, boneless, skinless, chicken breasts instead start by slicing the chicken breasts in half widthwise so that you have two thin chicken breasts instead of one.

Step Two:

In a shallow bowl, mix together breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.

Step Three:

Heat the olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat.

Step Four:

Dip the chicken breasts in melted butter and then coat with the breadcrumbs mixture.

Step Five:

Fry the coated chicken breasts in the oil for a couple of minutes on each side, until golden brown.

If using precooked chicken, this will only take about 1- 2 minutes per side.

When using raw chicken that has been cut in half to make it thin, this will take 3-4 minutes per side. Cook until the juices run clear or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Step Six:

Put one cup of cooked egg noodles in three bowls. Toss each with one tablespoon of melted butter. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.

Step Seven:

Slice each parmesan chicken breast and lay the slices on top of the noodles in the bowls.

If you want to make oven baked parmesan chicken instead, try the method in one of these two blog posts: Key Lime Chicken Tenders and Lemon Pepper Chicken Tenders.
