Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 piece yellow onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups white mushrooms, sliced
- 1.5 cups chicken stock
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 12 ounces egg noodles, cooked
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Start by preparing the chicken: slice the chicken breasts into thin strips about 1/2-inch wide.
Season the chicken strips with salt, black pepper, and paprika, then toss them with all-purpose flour to lightly coat.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken strips in a single layer and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and butter. Lower the heat to medium and sauté the chopped onion until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and release their juices.
Pour in the chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze and release any browned bits. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream and Dijon mustard. Mix well until you have a smooth, creamy sauce. Return the cooked chicken strips to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Taste the sauce and adjust salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the chicken stroganoff over cooked egg noodles. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
