I have learnt that living one day at a time is the only way to live right now. If you think too much into the future you will be stressed. Today I put on some make-up for the first time in many days and took the time to actually brush my hair. I had a video call with my therapist and I had to look at least a little presentable. I so needed that, feeling like I am pretty again and the chat. Staying at home can allow us to let ourselves go and forget that we need to take care of ourselves too. I have decided that I am going to make more effort to dress a little better and pamper myself every once in a while. I think we all need that. Little things like wearing some decent clothes and a touch of make-up makes me feel better, don’t know why I took so long. So if you feeling a little down, dress up and put on that lipstick. I promise it works.
Let me get to sharing my Chicken Stroganoff Recipe with you. I absolutely love this recipe. It’s chicken cooked with chicken, stock, sour cream, some mustard and it is so tasty. You can serve it with some mashed potatoes or egg noodles. Stroganoff is a dish that originated in Russia and it was made with tender strips of beef in a sour cream sauce. I first tasted a Chicken Stoganoff when I worked in corporate and there was a little deli around the corner. They sold the most amazing food and this was one of my favourites. It was such a big portion served with egg noodles and a friend and I always shared this for lunch. The good old days.
Although I have used chicken breasts, because my kids love white meat; you can use chicken thighs. It is more juicy and tender and you can brown it for longer. Chicken breasts is fine if you do not over cook it. I prefer to brown the whole chicken breast and I cut into strips after. Literally takes about a minute to brown on each side. It will cook further in the sauce so no need to fully cook it. If you try this recipe I hope you love it as much as we do. Do drop me email and share your comments.
