Ingredients
  

For the Stroganoff
  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced Consider using cremini or shiitake for better flavor.
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sour cream Substitute with Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
  • 2 tablespoons flour (for thickening)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • Cooked egg noodles or rice to serve

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather all your ingredients.
Cook the Chicken
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Add them to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
Sauté the Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the mushrooms are tender and browned, about 5-6 minutes.
Create the Sauce
  1. Sprinkle the flour over the mushrooms and stir for a minute to combine. Pour in the chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens.
Combine and Simmer
  1. Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream until well combined. Return the chicken to the skillet, let it simmer for another 5 minutes, and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Serve
  1. Serve the Chicken Mushroom Stroganoff hot over cooked egg noodles or rice, garnishing it with chopped parsley.

Notes

Use fresh ingredients for better flavor. Avoid overcooking the chicken and adjust the creaminess to your preference.
