Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb chicken breasts or thighs, cut into strips or cubes
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp butter or oil
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
- Cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes for serving
Instructions
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper.
- Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5–7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, add a little more oil if needed and sauté onions until soft, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and mushrooms and cook until mushrooms give off moisture and brown, another 5–6 minutes.
- Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up browned bits. Stir in Dijon mustard if using.
- Lower heat and stir in sour cream until smooth. Return chicken to the pan and warm through, but do not boil once sour cream is added. Adjust salt and pepper.
- Serve over cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with parsley.
