Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 lb boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp dill weed
1 tsp salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
2/3 cup finely chopped onion
8 oz button mushrooms, diced
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup shredded havarti cheese
1/4 cup breadcrumbs
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • 1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, and cook in the hot butter, turning occasionally, for about 7 minutes or until chicken is browned on all sides. Season with dill weed, salt and pepper.
  • 2. Add onion to skillet, and continue cooking and stirring until onion is clear, about 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, and cook another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 3. Reduce heat to low, stir in sour cream and cheese, and cook about 2 minutes more or just until cheese melts.
  • 4. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs and parsley on top, and stir just enough to incorporate the breadcrumbs into the cheesy mixture. Serve immediately.
