Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ½ cup full-fat sour cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Sear the Chicken: Lightly coat chicken pieces in flour. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Sauté the Mushrooms & Onions: In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed. Cook mushrooms and onions until softened and caramelized.
- Build the Flavor: Stir in minced garlic, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Simmer to Perfection: Pour in chicken broth, stirring to combine. Return the seared chicken to the skillet and let simmer for 5 minutes.
- Creamy Finish: Lower the heat and stir in sour cream, ensuring a smooth, velvety sauce. Simmer gently without boiling.
- Serve & Enjoy: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
Notes
- Use Greek yogurt instead of sour cream for a lighter version.
- Substitute chicken with beef for a traditional stroganoff.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container and reheat gently to maintain the creamy texture.
