Yuletide Chicken Stroganoff
(Chicken / Contains Dairy / Contains Gluten / Alcohol-Free)
Inspirations
I love it when inspirations beget inspirations! This Chicken Stroganoff for Christmas is a spin-off from our Beef Stroganoff Brazilian Style hailing from the Taste Brazil campaign earlier this year, and I’m souper stoked to bring it back, in a brand new yet familiar way! You might already know from then that the beef stroganoff is almost a national dish in Brazil, so well-loved that in the 80s, it was a popular favourite at weddings, served in a buffet style on classy silver chaffing dishes. The original Russian recipe is made with onions, butter, mushrooms, beef slices, sweet wine and sour cream and served with potatoes or pasta. The Brazilians have spruced up this classic with their rendition, adding tomatoes, tomato sauce (ketchup), Worcestershire sauce, cognac, mustard and preserved champignons instead of fresh mushrooms and sometimes speck. Cream is also added instead of sour cream and is always served with steamed rice and chips (or potato sticks).

This Christmas, we bring the comforting taste of chicken into this popular dish. Our chicken is always hormone-free, from sustainable sources, so you know you are doing good while eating your Christmas food! Enjoy this SouperChef Special from the inspirations of both the Russian and Brazilian styles, topped with cranberry sauce for that quintessential Christmas flavour! Truly the ultimate holiday food, best enjoyed in the cooler days of December!
