🛒 Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & pepper, to taste
Flour (for dredging)
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon butter
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
½ medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard (or more, to taste)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (or more, to taste)
3 cloves garlic, minced
⅔ cup chicken broth
½ cup full-fat sour cream

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions:

Prep the Chicken:
Cut chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces. Sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly dredge in flour until fully coated.
Sear the Chicken:
Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a deep skillet over medium-high. Cook chicken in two batches to avoid overcrowding. Sear each piece ~3 minutes per side until browned and cooked through (165°F). Add 1 more tablespoon oil for the second batch if needed. Transfer all chicken to a plate.
Sauté Mushrooms & Onions:
Add butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add mushrooms and onions. Cook 6–8 minutes until their moisture evaporates and mushrooms are golden brown.
Build the Sauce:
Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Deglaze & Simmer:
Pour in chicken broth, scraping up browned bits from the bottom. Add chicken back to the pan and simmer for 2 minutes.
Creamy Finish:
Lower heat and stir in sour cream gently. Heat through for about a minute (don’t boil — it could curdle!). Adjust seasoning with more salt & pepper if needed. Serve immediately! ✨

💡 Pro Tips:

Don’t boil the sour cream — it may curdle! Heat just enough to warm through.
Swap for thighs if you prefer darker, juicier meat.
Serve over egg noodles, rice, or even mashed potatoes for the ultimate comfort meal. 🥔🍝
