Time 20m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 boneless skinless chicken breast
2 ounces sliced mushrooms, and half the liquid from that can (half a can)
1/4 cup onion, diced
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup dried flat noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil (divided)
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon flour

Steps:

  • Start cooking the noodles in 2 quarts of salted water.
  • Cover both sides of the thawed Chicken Breast with the salt, pepper, and just a little olive oil.
  • Fry whole, in a deep pan (I like Cast Iron) 4 minutes per side.
  • Set aside and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before cutting into bite pieces.
  • Add the rest of the olive oil, and the butter into the pan, and saute the onion and the mushrooms.
  • In a seperate bowl, mix the Sour Cream, the liquid from the Mushroom Can (about 1/4 cup) and the Nutmeg and Thyme.
  • When the onions and mushrooms are done, add the flour and stir.
  • Add the sour cream mixture, and stir to make a sauce.
  • If the sauce is too thick, add small amounts of water from the pasta pot.
  • When the pasta is done (about 8 minutes), add to the sauce, follwed by the chicken, and stir.
  • Serve with a salad of a green vegetable.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chicken broth. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your stroganoff.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked, so be careful not to cook it for too long.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms. This will add more flavor and texture to your stroganoff.
  • Don't add the sour cream until the end. If you add it too early, it will curdle and ruin the sauce.
  • Serve with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles are all good options.

Conclusion:

Chicken stroganoff is a classic dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. This solo version is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table in no time.
