        Hi Sara,

        When I make this the amount of leftover broth has varied, ranging from 1/2 cup to almost none at all.

        Hope this helps ~ Heidi

      The only part I don’t understand is why it says to remove any excess chicken broth? I want to make this now, but that part is throwing me. How do you know if there is excess broth? Doesn’t it say 3 cups?

        Hi Cynthia,

        When the noodles are finished cooking, you’ll just want to make sure you remove any excess liquid to make sure the sauce isn’t too runny. Hope that helps! 🙂
