Equipment

  • Large Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 lb chicken breasts cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 0.5 tsp paprika
  • 0.25 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1 tsp salt divided
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper divided
  • 2 cups cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 1 small shallot minced
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp white wine optional
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 4 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 0.5 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 lb egg noodles cooked and drained
  • 0.33 cup sour cream plus more for garnish
  • to taste fresh parsley chopped, optional

Instructions
 

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, half the salt, and half the pepper.
  • Add chicken to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for 2 to 5 minutes on each side until browned, then transfer to a plate.
  • In the same pan, add remaining olive oil and sliced mushrooms. Cook until browned, about 4 minutes.
  • Add minced shallot, chopped onion, and garlic. Cook until soft and translucent. If using wine, add it now and simmer for 1 minute.
  • Add butter to the pan. Once melted, sprinkle in flour and whisk to form a smooth paste.
  • Gradually add chicken broth while whisking to keep the sauce smooth. Add Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a light simmer.
  • Return chicken to the skillet and cook for 5 to 8 minutes until fully cooked.
  • Add cooked egg noodles and stir to coat. Stir in sour cream until smooth. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Notes

Leftovers store well. Reheat with a splash of broth to keep the sauce creamy.
