Chicken Stroganoff

Home » Recipes » Chicken Stroganoff

Stroganoff is the definition of absolute comfort. This recipe swaps traditional beef for chicken and adds earthy cremini mushrooms to this one-pan version. Cooking the egg noodles in the same pan allows the pasta to absorb that rich liquid and release starch to thicken the sauce. Substitute boneless, skinless chicken breast for the tenders if you like. Serve with simply wilted kale dressed with a little lemon juice, or a beet salad dressed with a little horseradish cream.
