Description

Delicious and rich chicken stroganoff with a creamy mushroom sauce, perfect for a cozy dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • For the chicken:
  • 2 chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and black pepper, as desired
  • flour, for coating
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, plus extra as needed
  • For the creamy mushroom sauce:
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (or add to taste)
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce (or to taste)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

Instructions

1. Cut the chicken breast halves into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle them evenly with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper to taste. Next, coat each chicken piece in flour, ensuring all sides are lightly covered.

2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add half of the coated chicken pieces, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate. Repeat with the remaining chicken, adding more oil if needed.

3. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the butter. Once melted, add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onion. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables release their water and are nicely seared.

4. Stir in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Cook for about a minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.

5. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and simmer for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

6. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until the sauce is smooth. Let it heat through for about a minute without boiling. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before serving.


Notes

Use full-fat sour cream for the creamiest texture. Don’t let the sauce boil after adding sour cream to prevent curdling. Serve over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes for a hearty meal.
