How to Make One Pot Creamy Chicken Stroganoff
Step by Step Instructions
STEP 1: In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over both sides of the chicken cutlets.
STEP 2: Add the coconut flour to a shallow bowl. Lightly dredge each piece of chicken in the coconut flour and set aside.
STEP 3: Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter has started to melt, add the chicken to the pan. Sear the chicken cutlets until they are golden brown on both sides, about 4 minutes each side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
STEP 4: Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the pan. Once the butter has melted, add the onion, and cook until they are translucent. Add the garlic and cook until it is fragrant.
STEP 5: Add the mushrooms to the pan and cook until they have released their liquid and start to caramelize.
STEP 6: Deglaze the pan with white wine. Use a rubber spatula to scrape up and mix in any browned bits that are stuck to the bottom of the pan. Mix in the Worcestershire sauce and Dijon mustard.
STEP 7: Add the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low, mix in the heavy cream and let simmer until the sauce has reduced slightly and begins to thicken.
STEP 8: Stir the sour cream into the stroganoff sauce and mix until well combined. Let simmer for 5 to 10 additional minutes. Taste, and add salt and pepper, if needed. Garnish with chopped fresh chives or parsley.
STEP 9: Add the chicken, and any juices back to the pan. Simmer for 5 additional minutes to heat the chicken through. Garnish with fresh chives.

Notes
- Storage: Store leftover keto chicken stroganoff in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Reheating: I recommend reheating this creamy chicken stroganoff in a pan on the stove top. Adding a splash of heavy cream and/or chicken stock will help it come back to life.
- Use pork: This dish is also excellent made with thinly cut pork chops in place of the chicken. Season and cook them exactly as you would the chicken.
- Use beef: Instead of the chicken, add some cooked ground beef to the sauce for a keto beef stroganoff variation. Alternatively, you can use thinly sliced steak and season it and pan-sear it.

I made this the other night and invited my parents to come for dinner. This recipe was a hit! So much so that my dad said the sauce reminded him of his mother's recipe, to which my mom validated that this was one of the highest compliments I could receive as the cook! Thank you, Kyndra!!

This looks amazing, but I don't like mushrooms. Can I skip them?
