Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 cups mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini work great)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream for indulgence
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour optional for thickening
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
  • 8 ounces egg noodles, cooked according to package instructions

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden and no longer pink in the middle (about 5–7 minutes). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until they soften and release their juices. Stir in the minced garlic during the last minute.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce, scraping the bottom of the pan. To thicken the sauce, mix the flour with a bit of water to create a slurry and add it to the skillet. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  4. Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream. Add the chicken back into the sauce, stirring well so every morsel is coated.
  5. Plate the cooked egg noodles and pour the creamy chicken stroganoff over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

This dish pairs wonderfully with rice or mashed potatoes. Feel free to swap in your favorite mushrooms for an umami explosion. Leftovers reheat beautifully; just add a splash of chicken broth when warming up.
