7. Serve:
- Once the butter is fully incorporated and everything is well-mixed, turn off the heat.
- Serve the buttered chicken noodle bowl hot, either in individual bowls or as a larger serving dish.

Tips:

- Use high-quality butter for a richer flavor.

- If you prefer, chicken broth or stock can be used in place of the water and chicken broth cubes for added depth of flavor.

- Add some shredded cooked chicken to make it a more hearty and protein-rich meal.
