Pioneer Woman Chicken Stroganoff Recipe

Pioneer Woman Chicken Stroganoff recipe

Stroganoff originated in Russia during the 19th century as a beef-based dish, but over the years, variations have emerged worldwide. The Pioneer Woman’s chicken stroganoff is one such adaptation, swapping beef for chicken to create a quicker, leaner option that still delivers that signature creamy, savory taste. It’s typically served with egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or even rice for a filling and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

  • Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs (cut into strips)

  • Egg noodles (or rice, for serving)

  • Olive oil and butter

  • Onion (1, finely chopped)

  • Garlic (2 cloves, minced)

  • Mushrooms (8 oz, sliced)

  • Chicken broth (2 cups)

  • Sour cream (1 cup)

  • All-purpose flour (2 tbsp, for thickening)

  • Dijon mustard (1 tsp, optional for extra flavor)

  • Salt and black pepper (to taste)

  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Cook the noodles

Boil egg noodles in salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the chicken

Season chicken strips with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter, then cook chicken until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

Step 3: Sauté vegetables

In the same skillet, add onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Cook until soft and lightly browned.

Step 4: Make the sauce

Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir well. Slowly pour in chicken broth, whisking until the sauce thickens. Lower the heat and stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard, mixing until creamy.

Step 5: Combine and serve

Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it with the sauce. Let it simmer for 5 minutes. Serve hot over egg noodles or rice, garnished with fresh parsley.
