Recipe Tips

In order to get them to cook evenly, you need to cook them in a large nonstick pan and stir frequently because they won’t be completely submerged in liquid.

These Buttered Noodles are on the salty side which is one of the things I find so appealing about them.

If you’re worried they will be too salty, use either low-sodium broth or a low-sodium bouillon cube.

Buttered Noodles cooked in butter and chicken broth for extra flavor.

Ingredients

Equipment Large Nonstick Skillet

Steps

  1. 1

    Combine broth, water, bouillon cube, and half the stick of butter in a large nonstick skillet. Bring to a boil.

  2. 2

    Add noodles and cook, stirring frequently for about 8 minutes. (Note: Turn the heat down so the liquid does not boil vigorously and evaporate too quickly. Add more water if necessary.)

  3. 3

    Add garlic powder and remaining butter and stir well. Remove from heat and season with pepper and sprinkle with parsley.

Notes

The finished noodles will be fairly salty. If you want them less salty, use reduced sodium broth or a reduced sodium bouillon cube.
