Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, letting them release their moisture and become golden brown.
Stir in the paprika, thyme, and black pepper. Pour in the white wine (if using), letting it cook for about 2 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream and heavy cream. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring until the sauce is creamy and well combined.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, tossing to coat it in the sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes to heat everything through.
Serve the creamy chicken and mushroom stroganoff over the cooked rice. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, you can use coconut cream instead of heavy cream and a dairy-free sour cream alternative.

To store leftovers, keep the stroganoff in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

Frozen chicken breasts can be used, but it’s best to thaw them first for the best texture.

Wine can be skipped and substituted with extra chicken broth.
