NOTES:
*Authentic recipe doesn’t call for tomatoes, but I personally add it
cause it adds a lot of flavor and moisture to it. Noodles made without tomatoes
dry out soon and taste bland, I recommend you to add chopped tomatoes to
noodles.
*I have used shredded chicken on this recipe, but alternatively you can
use chicken from any leftover gravy.
Just remove the bones, shred the chicken and add it to the noodles
along with the gravy. Trust me it tastes heavenly.
