Ingredients (Servings: 6)

• 12 oz dry wide egg noodles
• 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, sliced
• 1 teaspoon fine sea salt (or to taste)

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch ceramic baking dish.

2. Add the Noodles

Spread the dry egg noodles evenly across the bottom of the baking dish.

3. Season and Add Butter

Sprinkle the salt evenly over the noodles. Scatter the sliced butter across the top, tucking some pieces into the noodles.

4. Pour the Broth

Slowly pour the chicken broth over the noodles, making sure most are covered. Press down any noodles sticking up.

5. Cover and Bake

Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 25 minutes.

6. Stir and Continue Baking

Carefully remove the foil, stir the noodles, then cover again and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until noodles are tender and most liquid is absorbed.

7. Rest the Dish

Remove from oven and let rest (covered) for 5–10 minutes so the broth fully absorbs and butter coats the noodles.

8. Final Stir and Serve

Uncover, stir well, adjust salt if needed, and serve warm.
