🧂 Ingredients
• 1 lb (450g) chicken breast, cut into strips or cubes
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 ½ cups mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tbsp flour (for thickening)
• 1 cup chicken broth
• ½ cup sour cream
• ½ cup heavy cream or milk
• Salt & black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• Cooked egg noodles or rice, for serving
👩🍳 Instructions
1. Cook the chicken:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and cook until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.
2. Sauté the veggies:
In the same pan, add onions and mushrooms. Cook until soft and golden. Add garlic and cook another minute.
3. Make the sauce:
Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir well. Slowly pour in chicken broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Let it thicken slightly.
4. Add the creaminess:
Stir in sour cream and heavy cream. Mix until smooth and creamy.
5. Combine everything:
Add back the cooked chicken and simmer for 5–7 minutes until the sauce is rich and the chicken is tender.
6. Serve hot:
Pour over noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with parsley and a sprinkle of paprika.
