4 Servings
Prep: 10 min. Cook: 25 min.

Ingredients

3 cups uncooked egg noodles
4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (4 ounces each)
3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
3/4 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
3 tablespoons sherry or additional reduced-sodium chicken broth
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Directions

Cook noodles according to package directions. Meanwhile, sprinkle chicken with tarragon and lemon-pepper. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, brown chicken in butter on both sides. Remove and keep warm.
In the same skillet, saute mushrooms and garlic until tender. Add 1 cup broth and sherry or additional broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Return chicken to the pan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 7-10 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 170°. Remove chicken and keep warm.
Combine flour and remaining broth until smooth; stir into pan juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in sour cream. Drain noodles; serve with chicken and sauce. Yield: 4 servings.
