Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- as needed Olive oil spray
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 8 ounces Baby bella mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup Chicken broth, low sodium
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 cup Plain nonfat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 4 cups Egg noodles, cooked (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with salt and ground black pepper.
Lightly spray a large nonstick skillet with olive oil spray and heat over medium-high heat.
Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, spray a little more olive oil spray if needed, and add the diced onion. Cook for about 3 minutes until softened, then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-6 minutes, or until the mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.
In a small bowl, whisk the chicken broth and cornstarch together until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet with the onions, garlic, and mushrooms.
Reduce the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce begins to thicken.
Remove the skillet from the heat and let it cool slightly for about 1-2 minutes to prevent the yogurt from curdling.
Stir in the cooked chicken, Greek yogurt, and paprika. Mix until everything is well combined and heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the stroganoff over cooked egg noodles, if desired, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy your delicious, Weight Watchers-friendly meal!
