Bob Evans Chicken & Noodles (Copycat)

Recipe #135323 | 55 min | 15 min prep | SERVES 6 -8 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Stacky5

This is a WONDERFUL recipe that I have looked for over 7 years now! I finally got the recipe from Chef Betsy502, who has someone in her family that worked at Bob Evans, and then Impera Magna re-calculated all of the ingredients to make it a home-cooked meal for my family! YAY for the Chefs here on Zaar! This is so good! Such comfort food, I simply can't explain! ENJOY! (And thank you SO MUCH, Betsy502 and Impera Magna for helping me achieve my DREAM RECIPE!)

    This was definitely better the next day. I boiled a whole chicken and used the meat from it, instead of using chicken breasts. More work, but definitely added great flavor. Will definitely make again! Thanks for posting

    Chicken and Noodles is one of my kids' favorites and they've proclaimed this the BEST. The Reames noodles just make the dish. I did sub some chicken broth for the water (still used the soup base too) and threw in some instant potato flakes at the end to thicken it. Will definitely make this again and again. Thanks for posting!

    This had a great comfort food flavor. I found the recipe to be a bit too watery, so the 2nd time I made it I reduced the recipe to 8 cups of water. I also melted the butter in the bottom of the pan and added 4T of flour to create a rue. I added the other ingredients after the thin paste formed. I also found I needed to cook the noodles 20-30 minutes instead of 10 minutes as the recipe calls. Family favorite, I make this again and again.
