Ingredients
- 2-2 1/2 lbs. boneless chicken breast or thighs cut into large chunks
- 2 tablespoons butter - divided
- 1 large sweet onion, finely chopped
- 12 oz baby bella mushrooms
- 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 2 bay leaves
- 5 sprigs of thyme
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup celery leaves, more for garnish

Preparation
- Add one tablespoon butter to a large pot or Dutch oven. Once melted, add in chicken pieces. Cook thoroughly.
- Once cooked, transfer to a plate. Drain any liquid from the pot.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and onion, cook over medium heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
- Add the mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 7 minutes.
- Add the garlic, bay leaves and thyme and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in the wine and cook until at least half-evaporated, about 10 minutes.
- Add the chicken broth and simmer until reduced by half, about 15 minutes.
- Remove pot from heat and stir in the sour cream, Greek yogurt and milk.
- Add the chicken to the sauce and simmer until heated through.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Stir in the celery leaves.
- Remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes: if you would like your sauce to be thicker, simmer longer or create a slurry by whisking a starch like cornstarch or flour with cold water, then gradually whisk it into the simmering sauce until thickened.
