Stroganoff is a dish that originates from Russia and typically includes beef strips, sour cream and egg noodles. In the recipe below, you'll find that this dish has been lightened up slightly, using chicken in place of the red meat, and doing away with the sour cream entirely.
But don't think that means it skimps on flavor, as cream cheese steps in to give the sauce its body and to fill you with comforting goodness. And you won't miss the beef either, as mushrooms give this dish the heartiness any good stroganoff needs.
