Ingredients
- 4 cups chicken broth (32 ounces)

- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 pounds boneless chicken breasts
- 1/2 cup butter

Directions
Step 1: Mix it Up. In your trusty Dutch oven, combine the chicken broth, water, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Give it a good whisk to make everything happy.
Step 2: Chicken Time. Toss in the boneless chicken breasts and butter. Cover the pot and heat it over medium until your broth starts bubbling like a happy cauldron. Once it’s boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover again, and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Step 3: Shred the Love. After 30 minutes, carefully remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool for a moment. Once it’s cool enough to handle, use two forks to shred that chicken into delightful pieces.
Step 4: Creamy Goodness. Stir in the cream of chicken soup until it's all smooth and creamy. Bring the mixture back to a gentle boil, then add the egg noodles and the shredded chicken.
Step 5: Noodle Magic. Cover the pot and cook over medium heat for 2-5 minutes, or until the noodles are halfway cooked. Then, turn off the heat and let the pot sit covered until the noodles are fully cooked and the sauce thickens up nicely.
This Cozy Campfire Chicken Noodle Delight is not just a meal; it's a comforting experience that warms you from the inside out. Perfect for camping nights or cozy dinners at home, this dish is sure to become a favorite. So gather around the campfire, serve up a bowl, and let the flavors take you on a delicious adventure!
