Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Chicken: Start by cutting the chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. In a mixing bowl, season the chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Dredge the seasoned chicken pieces in flour.
  2. Brown the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken pieces in batches. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, lower the heat and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the sliced cremini mushrooms and finely chopped onion. Sauté for about 6-8 minutes until browned.
  4. Add Flavorings: Stir in 2 teaspoons of Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently.
  5. Incorporate the Broth: Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Return the browned chicken to the skillet, stirring gently to combine. Allow to cook for about 2 minutes.
  6. Finish with Sour Cream: Stir in 1 cup of sour cream, mixing until fully incorporated. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary. Your creamy chicken stroganoff is ready!
