Materials

  • - 1 lb chicken breast thinly sliced
  • - 2 cups fresh mushrooms sliced
  • - 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • - 2 cloves garlic minced
  • - 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • - 1 tablespoon butter
  • - 1 teaspoon paprika
  • - 1 cup chicken broth
  • - 1 cup sour cream
  • - Salt and pepper to taste
  • - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • - Fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
  • - Cooked egg noodles or rice for serving

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the Chicken

  • **Heat the Oil and Butter**: In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.
  • **Brown the Chicken**: Add the thinly sliced chicken breast to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Mushroom Sauce

  • **Sauté Onions and Garlic**: In the same skillet, add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onions become translucent.
  • **Cook the Mushrooms**: Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they start to brown and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 3: Make the Sauce

  • **Thicken the Sauce**: Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour over the mushrooms and stir well to combine. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • **Add Chicken Broth**: Gradually pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, stirring constantly to create a smooth, lump-free sauce.
  • **Simmer the Chicken**: Return the browned chicken to the skillet. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 4: Finish the Dish

  • **Add Sour Cream and Paprika**: Stir in 1 cup of sour cream and 1 teaspoon of paprika. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce thickens and the chicken is fully cooked.
  • **Garnish and Serve**: Serve the Chicken Mushroom Stroganoff over cooked egg noodles or rice, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
