  • Author: Imili Johnson

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2/3 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Preparation:

Step 1:

Prepare the Chicken

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until browned and fully cooked, approximately 5-6 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 2:

Sauté the Vegetables 4. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter. 5. Once the butter melts, add the sliced mushrooms and chopped onion. 6. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms release their moisture and the onions become soft and translucent. 7. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 3:

Prepare the Sauce 8. Stir in the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce, ensuring everything is evenly coated. 9. Pour in the chicken broth and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes, letting the sauce reduce slightly.

Step 4:

Combine Chicken and Sauce 10. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and mix well, ensuring every piece is coated with the sauce.

Step 5:

Finish with Sour Cream 11. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the sour cream. Mix until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Avoid cooking further after adding sour cream to prevent curdling.

Step 6:

Garnish and Serve 12. Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the dish and serve immediately over your choice of egg noodles, steamed rice, or mashed potatoes.

Notes

Cooking Note:

  • To make the sauce thicker, let it simmer for an extra minute before adding the sour cream.
  • Adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper to suit your taste.
  • If you prefer a slightly tangier flavor, you can add a splash of lemon juice or white vinegar.
