There are nights when I want dinner to feel special—but not “dirty every pot in the kitchen” special. You know what I mean? That’s exactly where this 30-Minute Boursin Chicken Stroganoff comes in. It’s creamy, garlicky, a little tangy, and the kind of comfort food that makes everyone at the table instantly quiet for the first few bites (the ultimate compliment, if you ask me).
This recipe was born on one of those nights when I was craving the flavors of a classic beef stroganoff but didn’t have the patience, or the beef. So I swapped in chicken, tossed in a few upgrades, and ended up with a weeknight meal that feels like Sunday supper. The best part? It’s all made in one pan, so you still have energy to relax after dinner.

🍋 What Makes This Chicken Stroganoff Special
It’s the little flavor layers that make this dish stand out. The chicken gets seasoned with lemon pepper, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, giving it that bright, savory base. Then come the onions and mushrooms, caramelized until golden and full of flavor.
Right before the sauce comes together, I add a spoonful of whole grain mustard to the broth. It’s subtle,but trust me, it adds the perfect touch of tang and depth. Finally, the star of the show: Boursin cheese. It melts right into the sauce, creating the creamiest, dreamiest texture with a hit of garlic and herbs that makes you wonder why you ever used sour cream in stroganoff in the first place.
