Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 chicken breasts, diced

  • 4 strips bacon, chopped

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced

  • 1 tbsp flour

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)

  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  • Cook the Bacon:
    In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside, keeping some fat in the pan.

  • Sear the Chicken:
    In the same skillet, cook diced chicken for 5–7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

  • Sauté Vegetables:
    Add diced onion and garlic to the skillet, sauté for 2–3 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for another 3–4 minutes until tender.

  • Make the Sauce:
    Sprinkle flour over vegetables, stir, and cook for 1–2 minutes. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring to form a smooth sauce. Simmer for 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  • Finish the Dish:
    Lower heat and stir in sour cream and Dijon mustard. Return chicken and bacon to the pan. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper.

  • Serve:
    Spoon stroganoff over cooked rice and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a lighter version.

  • Serve over mashed potatoes or egg noodles for a variation.

  • Add a splash of white wine for extra depth in the sauce.
