Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups chicken (cut into bite sized pieces, about 2 pounds)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 1 ½ teaspoons paprika
  • 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
  • ½ white onion (diced)
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 pound sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • ½ cup sour cream

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the butter is completely melted, add the chicken, paprika, and garlic powder.
  • Cook the chicken for about 8 minutes, or until it is no longer pink in the middle.
  • Add the diced onions to the pan. Allow the onion to cook for about 5 minutes, or until soft.
  • Stir in the flour and mushrooms until the flour is fully incorporated into the chicken and onion mixture. Add the chicken broth and give the mixture a quick stir. Bring the broth to a boil and then whisk in the sour cream until homogenous.
  • Allow the stroganoff to simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Flour Technique: Cook the flour for at least a minute to eliminate any raw taste and help it thicken properly. Whisk constantly when adding the broth to prevent any lumps from forming.
Paprika Quality: Use high-quality Hungarian paprika for the best flavor and color in your stroganoff. Sweet paprika works best for this recipe, though you can use smoked paprika for a deeper flavor.
Broth Choice: Low-sodium chicken broth gives you better control over the salt content of the final dish. Homemade broth will provide the richest flavor if you have it available.
Storage: You can store your leftover stroganoff in the fridge for up to 3 days.
