Marinate the chicken breasts with olive oil, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions until al dente.
In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated chicken to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest while you prepare the noodles.
In the same skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter and add the drained noodles, tossing to coat.
Slice the chicken and serve it atop the buttered noodles, garnishing with fresh parsley.
