Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt & pepper to taste
• Flour for dredging
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 medium onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (or more, to taste)
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or more, to taste)
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 2/3 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

Directions:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle them with garlic powder and season generously with salt and pepper. Dredge each piece in flour, ensuring they’re well-coated.
2. Cook the Chicken: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Brown the chicken for about 3 minutes per side, flipping once, until it’s cooked through and lightly browned. The internal temperature should reach 165°F. Adjust the heat as necessary for the second batch, adding more oil if needed. Once cooked, transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same pan, melt the butter and add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onions. Sauté for 6-8 minutes, allowing the mushrooms to release their water and sear nicely.
4. Build the Sauce: Stir in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Let this mixture cook for about a minute to meld the flavors.
5. Add the Broth and Chicken: Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan to enhance the flavor. Return the cooked chicken to the pan and let it cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Finish with Sour Cream: Finally, stir in the sour cream, heating the mixture through for about a minute. Be careful not to let it bubble too much to avoid curdling. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
7. Serve: Serve this creamy chicken stroganoff immediately, garnished with fresh parsley or over a bed of egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
