Cooking Instructions

  • Cut the chicken into 1" pieces. Sprinkle them with garlic powder and generously with salt & pepper, then coat each piece in flour.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of the oil to a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken in 2 batches so the pan isn't over-crowded and the chicken browns evenly.
  • Once the pan is hot, add the chicken and cook it for about 3 minutes/side or until cooked through (165F) & lightly browned.
  • Transfer cooked chicken to a plate and cook the second batch with another tablespoon of olive oil.
  • Add the butter to the pan and let it melt, then add the mushrooms and onions. Sauté for 6-8 minutes.
  • Stir in the Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic. Cook for about a minute.
  • Add in the broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chicken back in and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the sour cream and let it heat through for about a minute or so. Season with more salt & pepper as needed and serve immediately.
