Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks

Vegetables

  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Sauces and Liquids

  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Thickening and Seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Other

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the stroganoff.
  2. Sauté Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken chunks and cook until they are lightly browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Cook Vegetables: In the same skillet, add diced onions and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the vegetables are soft and the onions have become translucent. Then add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute to release its aroma.
  4. Add Flour: Sprinkle flour over the cooked vegetables and stir thoroughly to coat everything. Continue cooking for a couple more minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
  5. Create Sauce: Gradually pour in chicken broth while stirring constantly until the mixture begins to thicken. Stir in cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper, mixing until smooth and well combined.
  6. Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the browned chicken pieces to the skillet and stir well to coat the chicken with the sauce mixture.
  7. Transfer and Bake: Pour the entire chicken and sauce mixture into a baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce is bubbly and heated through.
  8. Finish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, then serve warm and enjoy your comforting baked chicken stroganoff.

Notes

  • For a thicker sauce, reduce the chicken broth slightly or increase the flour to 3 tablespoons.
  • Use full-fat sour cream for the creamiest texture, but you can substitute with Greek yogurt for a lighter option.
  • Make sure chicken pieces are cut into even sizes for uniform cooking.
  • This dish pairs well with egg noodles, rice, or mashed potatoes.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
