Description
A comforting chicken stroganoff with a velvety sauce and tender chicken, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs / 680 g)
- 8 oz white mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 ½ cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup full-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour or cornstarch/arrowroot powder for gluten-free
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Pat dry the chicken breasts. Next, dice the onion, slice the mushrooms, and mince the garlic.
- Optional – In a small skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Sauté the onions and mushrooms for 5-7 minutes, then add the garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot, pour in the chicken broth, and add the sautéed mushrooms and onions.
- Stir in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, avoiding lifting the lid while cooking.
- About 30 minutes before serving, remove the chicken breasts. Make a slurry with the flour and a bit of cold water, then stir it into the crockpot.
- Shred the chicken using two forks, return it to the crockpot, and cook uncovered on high for 20-30 minutes.
- Stir in the sour cream off the heat, adjust the seasoning, and if desired, garnish with parsley.
- Serve over egg noodles, rice, or fluffy mashed potatoes, enjoying every creamy bite!
Notes
For a tangy twist, you can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt. The recipe is also adaptable for gluten-free diets by using cornstarch or gluten-free flour.
