When I think of stroganoff, I’m instantly brought back to my childhood days of requesting Beef Stroganoff from my grandma any time I’d sleepover at her house. Beef stroganoff defines comfort food for me. While this Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff recipe is a favorite, I thought I’d share another favorite with you, this Easy Chicken Stroganoff made in a skillet!
Most of the chicken stroganoff recipes I’ve come across are made in the slow cooker with cream of mushroom soup. I wanted something that could be made on the stovetop in 30 minutes or less, with a delicious sauce that didn’t include the cream soup. I wanted something a little on the healthy side, a little lighter in calories, but not lacking in flavor. Thankfully, this recipe for quick and easy Chicken Stroganoff fits the bill!
The sauce consists of simple ingredients, and like I mentioned, no cream soup. All you’ll need is a little chicken broth, worcestershire sauce, a splash of balsamic vinegar, and to add a little creaminess, sour cream or greek yogurt. It’s the perfect simple, light, sauce for this chicken stroganoff recipe!
My favorite part about this recipe are the fresh mushrooms! Feel free to leave those out if you don’t like them, but they are tender and delicious and I’d definitely recommend using fresh mushrooms over the canned variety.
Of course, stroganoff, whether beef or chicken, would not be the same without the egg noodles. I always buy the extra wide no yolk egg noodles to serve with this. Sometimes I mix the noodles with the chicken sauce while other times plate the noodles and add the sauce on top. Either way, you can’t go wrong.
Ready in under 30 minutes, this is a meal your whole family will enjoy!
