Chicken Cabbage Noodles

photo 008700x515_zpsa77a7092.jpg

     This is versatile winter evening dinner. Make as little or as much as you need. Tip: Make a little more than you think you'll need. Not only do people go back for seconds and thirds, but it's delicious warmed over the next day.

Chicken Cabbage Noodles

Chopped onion 
Turkey or chicken schmaltz/ ghee/ butter
Coleslaw mix or chopped cabbage 
Chicken broth 
Chicken Swanson Flavor Boost or 
Knorr Homestyle Chicken Broth packet 
Pepper 
Sriracha/Tabasco sauce 
Chopped cooked chicken 
Fresh chopped thyme/ground thyme 
Noodles 

     Saute the vegetables in the fat until they're tender. Add the broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil and add the noodles. Cook until tender. Serve. 

     If you still have turkey schmaltz in your freezer from Thanksgiving, this is the place to use some of it. That melted clarified fat smells like the holidays! You can see how I've been chipping away at this. The chicken flavor packets contain salt, so taste the broth before adding more.

     This is the lazy cook's way!

About the Author
Linda (LRuthers)

 

 





     I'm convinced that there are many more bad recipes than there are bad cooks. The problem is that sometimes decent cooks use bad recipes and then believe that the poor results are their fault.


     When people print recipes in cookbooks, magazines, etc. or when they post them online, they seldom tell the pitfalls or the little tips needed to make the recipe turn out well. And, too, quite a few printed recipes contain typos!


     I search for recipes that are good. Dependable. I'm not a chef. I'm a mother and grandmother who's been cooking for >45 years.


     I believe that any recipe posted for the general public should be one that I can master. If not, there's something wrong with the recipe.


     I post my successes and my failures, and tell what I learned when following each new recipe. I learn more from my mistakes. I don't know what that says about me.


     The very best recipes are the ones that are inexpensive, delicious AND easy. And there are a lot of those.


     Sometimes, I spend a little more and work a little harder for a recipe that seems to be one that will make people really happy.


Thanks, Linda
