Chicken and Mushroom Stroganoff
This recipe comes from Cooking Light October 2015 magazine issue. This Chicken and Mushroom Stroganoff was creamy and rich tasting. The flavor of the mushrooms with the fluffy fettuccine noodles was excellent. It was quick and easy and made enough for all 5 of us in our family to enjoy. This recipe is great on cold days. One bowl of this and you will forget what the weather is like.
