Chicken Stroganoff Sauce
Description
The recipe uses ground chicken cooked initially to break up the meat, combined with sautéed onions and tomato paste for sweetness and depth. Cremini mushrooms and fresh thyme add earthiness and aroma. A blend of paprika and chicken bouillon enrich the flavor, while Worcestershire sauce contributes umami notes. The sauce is made creamy by blending water, sour cream, and flour, which thickens as the mixture simmers.
Slow cooking the sauce mixture allows the chicken to become tender and absorbs the complementary flavors from the herbs and spices. The texture is creamy with tender meat pieces and softened mushrooms throughout.
Serve this sauce hot over cooked egg noodles or preferred pasta types to create a filling and comforting dish that combines creamy sauce and protein with a nice mushroom and herb note. Garnish with chopped parsley to add freshness and color to the plated meal.
Ingredients
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour)

- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- black pepper (to taste)
- 1/2 cup onion chopped
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste

Instructions
- In a blender combine the water, sour cream, flour, bouillon, and paprika, blend until smooth.
- Heat a large deep nonstick skillet on high heat and spray with oil. Add the chicken and salt and cook, breaking up the meat into small pieces as it cooks, about 5 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium, add the onions and tomato paste to the pan and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, thyme and Worcestershire sauce.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken and bring to a boil. Cover and cook on low 35 to 45 minutes, until tender.
- When sauce is done, discard thyme, garnish with chopped parsley and serve over your favorite noodles or veggie noodles.
Notes
