Buttered Egg Noodles (& Chicken Kiev)

When we got married, the meal at our reception was Chicken Kiev and buttered egg noodles. It was really good and I've always wanted to re-create it at home. I finally figured out how to do it!

Step 1: Buy pre-made frozen chicken kiev. Yup, I didn't even attempt to make it from scratch.

Step 2: Make buttered egg noodles. That's where this recipe comes in. I got it online somewhere and modified it to suit us. It's really good, really fast and easy!

Ingredients:

1 package broad egg noodles (340 g)
3 1/4 cups chicken broth (I use water + chicken bouillon)
1/4 cup butter

Bring the chicken broth and butter to a boil. Add the egg noodles and cook covered for about 8 minutes, or until the noodles are done and the liquid has all been absorbed. The original recipe calls for an additional 1/4 cup of butter to be stirred into the noodles at the end, but I've deemed this unnecessary. It makes the noodles greasier but doesn't really add to the flavour. I do however give it a sprinkle of parsley on top before serving.
