Creamy Chicken Stroganoff

Submitted by saucysteph

"Just like the popular beef version, but with chicken! Came up with this one night when my boyfriend was tired of our usual meals...he asked for beef stroganoff, chicken was what was defrosted so I made it with that. Has become a favorite! I like to make it with shells cause they really hold the sauce."
