This dish has a great flavor. Its not dry at all, has a nice sauce to keep it moist. Delish!

Ingredients:
  • 4 ounces uncooked medium egg noodles
  • 1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon bottled minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon (im not a fan of tarragon so i used a teeny bit of dill. you can use parsely or basil instead too)
  • 1 (8-ounce) package presliced mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
  • Cook noodles according to package directions, omitting salt and fat. Drain and keep warm.
  • Cut chicken into 1-inch pieces. Place chicken breast halves in a shallow dish.
  • Combine 1 tablespoon flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper, stirring well with a whisk. Sprinkle flour mixture over chicken; toss to coat.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add chicken to pan; sauté 4 minutes or until browned.
  • Remove chicken from pan.
  • Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to pan.
  • Add garlic, tarragon, and mushrooms to pan; sauté for 3 minutes or until liquid evaporates and mushrooms darken.
  • Add white wine to pan; cook 1 minute.
  • Stir in remaining 1 tablespoon flour; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Stir in broth, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper; cook 1 minute or until slightly thick, stirring frequently.
  • Return chicken to the pan.
  • Cover and simmer 2 minutes.
  • Uncover; cook 1 minute or until chicken is done.
  • Stir in noodles; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated.
  • Place about 1 1/2 cups chicken mixture on each of 4 plates; top each serving with 1 tablespoon cheese.
I didnt stir the noodles into the chicken. I just plated the noodles then put the chicken over it.

When tasting the sauce by itself, it was great however when the sauce was mixed with everything else, it kinda lost its flavor. I felt like it needed something else and I even added other spices to it. I am looking for a rich wine sauce. Thank you anyway!
