Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- All-purpose flour for dredging
- 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 tbsp butter
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
- ½ medium onion, chopped
- 1–2 tbsp Dijon mustard, to taste
- 1–2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce, to taste
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- ⅔ cup chicken broth
- ½ cup full-fat sour cream
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge them lightly in flour, shaking off excess.
- Cook the Chicken: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in batches, about 3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and butter. Sauté mushrooms and onions until browned and liquid has evaporated (6-8 minutes).
- Add Aromatics: Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
- Deglaze and Simmer: Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet. Return the cooked chicken to the pan and simmer for 2 minutes.
- Finish the Sauce: Remove from heat and stir in sour cream until well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Serve the chicken stroganoff over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Notes
- Protein Alternatives: Swap chicken for turkey or lean beef for different flavors.
- Vegetarian Option: Replace the chicken with additional mushrooms or plant-based protein for a vegetarian dish.
- Spice Level: Add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce for a spicy kick.
- Herbs: Fresh parsley or thyme can be added for extra flavor.
- Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently over low heat, adding a splash of broth if necessary.
