Baked Chicken Stroganoff is a hearty, oven-baked casserole that combines tender chunks of chicken with earthy mushrooms and a creamy, tangy sauce. It's perfect for cozy weeknight dinners or meal prep, offering a satisfying meal that brings warmth and flavor to your table.
2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1 medium onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup sour cream
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon paprika
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Brown the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken chunks and cook until lightly browned on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the diced onions and sliced mushrooms. Cook until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Make the Sauce: Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir to coat. Cook for 2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste. Gradually add the chicken broth while stirring constantly. Then, add the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Combine and Bake: Return the browned chicken to the skillet and stir to coat with the sauce. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling.
Serve and Enjoy: Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired. Serve over egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice.
