Ingredients

  • egg noodles
    12 oz
  • butter

    divided

    4 tbsp
  • diced onion
    1 c
  • cremini mushrooms

    sliced

    8 oz
  • garlic

    minced

    2 cloves
  • all-purpose flour
    2 tbsp
  • worcestershire sauce
    1 tbsp
  • salt
    ½ tsp
  • black pepper
    to taste
  • chicken stock
    1 ½ c
  • sour cream
    ½ c
  • heaping cups shredded rotisserie chicken

    about 1 pound of meat

    2
  • fresh parsley

    garnish

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the egg noodles in salted water according to the package directions. Once the noodles are cooked, drain and return them to the pot with two tablespoons of butter, and toss to coat.

    Step 1
  2. 2

    Melt the remaining two tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and mushrooms and cook for 6 to 8 minutes until the vegetables have softened and are browned in spots. Add the garlic and cook for a final 30 seconds, until the garlic is fragrant. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Step 2
  3. 3

    Add the flour to the skillet and use a spatula to work the flour into the vegetables, forming a paste-like coating on the vegetables. Cook for a minute and then add the Worcestershire sauce, salt, and some freshly ground black pepper. Slowly add the chicken stock in 1/2 cup increments, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.

  4. 4

    Once your chicken stock has been added, let the sauce thicken for a few minutes and then stir in the shredded chicken. Remove the pot from the heat and add the sour cream, and stir to combine. Taste the sauce and season it with salt and pepper to your liking. Return the pan to low heat and warm until the sauce is once again piping hot. (If you aren’t serving the sauce immediately, you can keep the sauce warm on very low heat for a little while. Be careful as it will curdle over higher heat.) If at any point the sauce gets too thick, thin it with a drizzle of cooking water from the pasta.

    Step 4
  5. 5

    Serve the stroganoff either by stirring the noodles straight into the sauce to combine everything, or portioning out the noodles onto individual plates and spooning the sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley. If you have leftovers, it’s best to store the sauce and noodles separately and then reheat the sauce gently in a skillet with a few spoonfuls of water. You can microwave the noodles with a few spoonfuls of water and then combine everything. The leftovers will keep for a few days without a problem. Did you love the recipe?
