Begin by cutting the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper.
Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic cloves, and slice the mushrooms.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken cubes in batches, browning them on all sides. Ensure not to overcrowd the pan. Transfer the browned chicken to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Then, add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté until they are browned and have released their moisture, about 5 minutes.
Return the browned chicken to the skillet. Stir in the ketchup, mustard, and water. Allow the mixture to simmer for 5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is fully cooked through.
Lower the heat to medium-low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir well to combine and let the sauce thicken while simmering gently for another 5 minutes.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.
Before serving, sprinkle the chopped parsley over the strogonoff.
Serve hot over rice or alongside crispy French fries. Enjoy your creamy and delicious strogonoff de frango!
