Get a pot of boiling water and add a little bit of salt.

Add in the wide egg noodles and boil for 7 minutes.

After 7 minutes, turn off the heat and drain the noodles, then set them aside.

In a saucepan over medium heat, add the butter and let it melt.

Once the butter has melted, add in the chicken broth.

Add the ground black pepper and garlic powder to the chicken broth and stir until well combined.

Once the broth begins to boil, add in the egg noodles and mix to coat them well.

Let the noodles simmer for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce and cling to the noodles.

Mix together 1 tablespoon of water and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch.

Pour the cornstarch mixture into the noodles to thicken the broth and give the noodles a nice coating.

Turn off the heat and add parsley flakes over the top.
