Chicken Stroganoff

In my effort to create meal plans that were affordable, efficient and kid-friendly, I decided to make a chicken stroganoff from the frozen chicken in my freezer and the neverending supply of bacon in our refrigerator from Simon's Man Diet.  Stroganoff is always stupid-delicious but this was so good, I had to restrain myself from licking my plate - because I'm super classy and super classy ladies don't lick their plates. ....unless no one is looking, then go for it.

Chicken Stroganoff

2 chicken breasts, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
4 slices bacon, diced
1 large brown onion, diced
3 cups chicken stock
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 garlic cloves, minced
300g sour cream
2 tablespoons plain flour
cooked pasta

Cook the bacon in a large frying pan over medium heat until crisp.  Remove the bacon from the pan (leaving the drippings) and set aside.

Add the onion and the chicken to the bacon drippings and sauté until onion is tender and chicken is cooked through. Add the bacon, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic and stock and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

Combine the sour cream and the flour, stirring until smooth.  Add the sour cream mixture to the pan and bring back to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.  Serve over pasta.
