Quick Chicken Stroganoff
I love the flavours of a good stroganoff. There is something that just speaks to me when you combine the flavours of bacon, mushrooms, paprika and sour cream. It’s my kind of food. And I love the traditional beef stroganoff – it’s a classic for a very good reason. But recently I tried something different and my Quick Chicken Stroganoff was born!
This recipe is a little simpler than the classic beef version, with the whole dish coming together in around half an hour. Slicing the chicken pieces quite thin help with the faster cooking and also keeps the chicken quite moist. Flavour wise, I’ve left out the tomato paste of the classic version and used smoked paprika rather than the usual sweet paprika. And I added in some zucchini to get some extra veg in there!
The quick chicken stroganoff can be served with just about anything. It’s delicious over pasta, rice or quinoa, can be served with mashed potato and a few steamed greens. Or at it’s simplest, just serve over toast or with some fresh crusty bread to soak up the sauce. It won’t disappoint!
And if you happen to have any leftovers, they are perfect for lunches the next day or can be frozen for another meal.
