Tips to Perfect Creamy One Pot Chicken Stroganoff:
Creamy chicken stroganoff is the perfect easy dinner because it is incredibly versatile, quick, and simple to prepare - so it's perfect for a dinner party, busy weeknight, or comforting Sunday supper.
Chicken stroganoff is one of those dishes you can add or substitute ingredients easily - try it with your favorite vegetables, over different noodles or rice (and even over cauliflower rice or zoodles!) for a different dinner each time you make it!
- Let the chicken broth cook down before adding cream cheese to prevent a too-liquid dish.
- Don't overcook your chicken - it will dry out and become tough and chewy.
- This dinner is great over rice, pasta or with bread - but is also delicious over baked cauliflower rice, sautéed vegetables, or baked potatoes for a totally customize-able and diet friendly meal!
- If planning this meal for meal prep (leftovers), make sure chicken is fully cooked, but do not over-reduce and let sauce thicken.
- Refrigerate when sauce is still very runny, it will thicken when reheating.
- Cooking more will make sauce thicken and dry out when reheating if overcooked.

Tried this tonight and my husband and I absolutely loved it! I actually soak my mushrooms in marsala wine before slicing as that is what I do for my stuffed mushrooms. Guess it might be an extra carb but adds a slight lovely taste. this recipe was so delicious that I'm looking forward to making it again, for dinner guests.

If I wanted to use minced garlic in place of diced garlic, how much would I use? I can't wait to make this. My family is going to love it.
Courtney ODell
Michelle, I'd use around 2 tbsp. I like things REALLY garlicky, so if thats too much for you, I'd use 1 tbsp and see how you like it - honestly the garlic amount is really flexible depending on your preferences.
Imelda Saavedra
1/4 cup of garlic? Is that not too much? I'm a little scares of adding so much.
Thanks,
Imelda

Imelda,
You can reduce the garlic if you'd like - I like a lot of garlic, but you can halve it!
Imelda Saavedra
Got it, thanks.
