Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium/high heat. When the oil gets hot, add chicken pieces and cooked them until they are golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a heat-proof bowl and set it aside.
Next, lower the heat to medium and add another splash of vegetable oil. Add the shallots and mushrooms to the pan and stir while they began to soften and brown. After a few minutes, add about a tablespoon of water to the pan to help the mushrooms begin to release their liquid, then allow them to continue to cook down for another 10 minutes or so. In the last few minutes, add the tarragon and nutmeg and stir.

To finish, return the chicken to the pan, turn off the heat, and stir in the sour cream (turning off the heat ensures the sour cream doesn't get too hot and begin to separate).

A bed of broad noodles made the perfect nest for the chicken stroganoff.
