Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ¼ teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 1 pound chicken thighs boneless and skinless, cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 12 ounce white mushrooms cut in half
- ½ cup white wine I used Sauvignon Blanc
- 1 cup chicken broth low sodium
- 2 tablespoon fresh dill chopped
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Cook the chicken. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Generously season the chicken with salt and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and cook for about 5 minutes, until no longer pink.
- Sauté the mushrooms. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 2 more minutes until the onion is soft. Add the mushrooms and continue cooking for about 5 to 7 minutes until the mushrooms soften and are golden brown, stirring occasionally.
- Make the sauce. Stir in the white wine and chicken broth. Bring to a boil. Add the the dill and sour cream and stir to combine. Add the butter to skillet and stir it in to melt. In a small bowl whisk the flour with a couple ladles of the broth from the skillet.
- Finish the dish. Pour this mixture back into the skillet, stir well and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper as needed.
- Garnish and serve. Garnish with additional dill if preferred. Serve over mashed potatoes, cooked rice, pasta or creamy polenta.
