Ingredients (UK & US measures):
- 4 chicken breasts, cut into small pieces
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 250g / 9 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 2 teaspoons paprika
- 150ml / ⅔ cup chicken stock
- 150ml / ⅔ cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Here’s how to make this delicious meal:
1️⃣ Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
2️⃣ Reduce the heat to medium and add the chopped onion to the pan. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft and translucent. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 10 minutes until browned and tender. Sprinkle in the paprika and mix well.
3️⃣ Pour in the chicken stock, scraping the pan to loosen any flavorful bits. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly. Stir in the sour cream and lemon juice, then season with salt and pepper. Let the sauce simmer for another 5 minutes to thicken up.
4️⃣ Return the cooked chicken to the pan and stir it into the sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and mix gently. Serve this comforting dish alongside your favourite sides for the ultimate cozy meal.
