Chicken-Mushroom Noodles

Minor's broth bases and flavor concentrates save you time,
help you cut the fat, and still maintain a rich flavor.

Recipe ingredients:

16 ounces water
1/2 teaspoon Minor's low sodium chicken broth base
1 teaspoon Minor's mushroom base
1/4 teaspoon Minor's roasted Mirepoix

1/4 teaspoon Minor's roasted onion
4 ounces thin egg noodles
2 to 4 additional ounces of water, as needed

Instructions:

  1. In an heavy saucepan, bring water to a boil.
  2. Add the Minor's chicken broth base, mushroom base, roasted Mirepoix, and roasted onion. Stir until bases dissolve.
  3. Add egg noodles and lower heat to temperature to maintain a slow boil.
  4. Boil for 10 minutes.
  5. Continue to boil for an additional 10 minutes, or until noodles are done, adding additional water as necessary.**

**You will not be draining these noodles in a colander. You want the noodles to absorb some of the water; the rest evaporates during cooking.

 


Variation:
Good ole Tuna-Noodle Casserole:


Stir in a drained can of tuna and you now have a tuna-noodle casserole. (Optional: For a richer, closer-to-homemade-egg-noodles taste, stir in an egg when you add the tuna. If you do this, you'll need to continue to "cook" this dish until the egg is done. I also sometimes add some grated cheddar or American cheese.)
