Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon paprika

1 tablespoon flour

1 cup chicken broth

1/2 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (optional)

Cooked egg noodles or rice, for serving

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 5–6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

In the same skillet, add onions and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.

Add mushrooms, salt, pepper, and paprika. Sauté until mushrooms release their moisture and begin to brown.

Sprinkle flour over the mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute to remove raw flour taste.

Pour in chicken broth and stir, scraping up any browned bits. Bring to a simmer and let it thicken slightly.

Reduce heat to low. Stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard (if using) until smooth.

Return chicken to the pan and stir to coat in the sauce. Simmer for 2–3 more minutes to heat through.

Serve warm over noodles or rice, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Greek yogurt can be used instead of sour cream for a lighter option.

For extra flavor, add a splash of white wine when sautéing the mushrooms.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Reheat gently over low heat to prevent the sauce from separating.
