Easy Chicken Stroganoff

Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs, cut into strips or cubes
• 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced (optional)
• 1 tsp paprika (optional)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 tbsp flour (optional, for thickening)
• Cooked egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes (for serving)
• Fresh parsley (optional garnish)

Instructions:

1. Cook chicken:
   Heat oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and season with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook until browned and cooked through (about 5–7 minutes). Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. Sauté veggies:
   In the same skillet, add a little more oil if needed. Sauté onions and mushrooms until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
3. Make sauce:
   Return chicken to the pan. Stir in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. If you want a thicker sauce, mix the flour with 2 tablespoons of water and stir it in now.
4. Add sour cream:
   Reduce heat to low. Stir in sour cream and mix until smooth and heated through (do not boil). Adjust seasoning to taste.
5. Serve:
   Spoon over egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes. Garnish with parsley if desired.
