Ingredients
Scale
Protein and Vegetables
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 medium onion, diced
2 cups mushrooms, sliced (white or cremini)
Pasta
2 cups egg noodles (or gluten-free pasta)
Sauce
1 cup cream of mushroom soup (homemade or store-bought)
1 cup sour cream
2 cups chicken broth
2 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for sautéing
Garnish
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the stroganoff.
Sauté Onions: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
Cook Mushrooms: Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet, cooking until they soften and release their juices, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Cook Chicken: Add bite-sized chicken pieces to the skillet. Season with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink inside, about 6-8 minutes.
Add Broth: Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, allowing flavors to meld for about 3-4 minutes.
Mix Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup and sour cream. Stir until smooth, then pour into the skillet, stirring to combine thoroughly with the chicken mixture.
Combine with Noodles: In a baking dish, mix the cooked egg noodles with the chicken and sauce mixture until evenly coated.
Bake Covered: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes to meld flavors and heat through.
Bake Uncovered: Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes until the stroganoff is bubbly and the top is lightly golden.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm for a comforting meal.
Notes
For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free pasta and ensure the cream of mushroom soup is gluten-free.
You can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier flavor and thicker texture.
Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be reheated gently on the stove or microwave.
Add a splash of white wine to deglaze the pan after cooking mushrooms for extra depth of flavor.
For added texture, sprinkle some shredded cheese on top before the last baking stage.
