Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Cook the egg noodles al dente following the package instructions, ensuring they are tender but still firm. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté Vegetables: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the diced sweet onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and thawed peas and carrots. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for about 3 minutes until the onions become soft and translucent, stirring occasionally.

- Combine and Serve: Add the cooked noodles and cubed chicken breast to the skillet with the sauce and vegetables. Mix everything gently until fully combined and heated through. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot and enjoy!
