Follow The Directions

01

Step

Season the chicken pieces generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Heat the olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden brown on all sides. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Reduce the heat to medium, add the chopped onion, and cook until translucent, stirring occasionally. (3 minutes). Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Stir in the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. (30 seconds)

05

Step

Pour in the chicken stock, white wine, and dry sherry. Bring the mixture to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. (2 minutes)

06

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, chopped fresh dill, and Dijon mustard until smooth. (1 minute)

07

Step

Gently stir the yogurt mixture into the skillet, ensuring it is well incorporated. Add the cold, cubed butter and stir until melted and the sauce begins to emulsify. (3 minutes)

08

Step

In a separate small bowl, place the flour. Add a ladleful of the hot broth from the skillet and whisk until smooth, creating a slurry. (1 minute)

09

Step

Pour the flour slurry into the skillet and stir continuously until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency. (4 minutes)

10

Step

Reduce the heat to low and simmer gently, allowing the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Add additional dill for a more pronounced dill flavor. (3 minutes)

11

Step

Garnish with extra fresh dill before serving. Serve hot over rice, mashed potatoes, pasta, or creamy polenta.

For a richer flavor, substitute heavy cream for the Greek yogurt.
If you don't have dry sherry, you can omit it or substitute it with a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar for a touch of acidity.
Ensure the butter is cold when added to help create a glossy, emulsified sauce.
Adjust the amount of dill to your personal preference.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
