In a large pot heated over medium-high heat, cook bacon until crisp; transfer to a plate lined with paper towels; crumble, leaving bacon drippings in the pot.
Season chicken breast tenders with salt, pepper and garlic powder. If using chicken breasts, cut in half length-wise to cook quicker.
To the bacon drippings, add chicken breast tenders; sear about 3 minutes per side. Chicken may not be fully cooked at this point which is ok. Remove chicken from pan; cut into pieces. It will cook more when returned to the pot.
If there’s minimal bacon drippings remaining, add 1 T. butter to the pot.
To the pot, add in diced shallot, celery, mushrooms and onion; saute until vegetables are tender. Add in garlic; cook 30 seconds longer. Add in seasonings: salt, pepper, garlic powder, dried thyme and smoked paprika.
Stir in 4 c. chicken stock; bring to a boil; reduce heat; add in Reames Homestyle Egg Noodles. Return chicken and bacon to the pot; simmer for 15 minutes.
Stir in cream cheese and heavy cream. When the cream cheese and cream are well combined, after about 5 minutes, garnish with green onion or chopped parsley.
