This kicked-up stroganoff gets a burst of great flavor from picante sauce...it's ready in just 40 minutes, but it's so good, it tastes like you've been cooking all day!
Big, spicy Anaheim peppers are stuffed with chicken and cheese, broiled, and served in a savory sauce flavored with chili powder, garlic, cinnamon, and a bit of bittersweet chocolate.
In the past, if you wanted to serve pesto, you had to make it from scratch. Now it is available in plastic containers in the refrigerated section of many markets. Avoid the pesto sold in glass jars on store shelves, as the fresh basil flavor is lost.
Once you taste this, you won't ever go back to the marshmallow-topped variety! I have peeled and cooked in the microwave, and also boiled the sweet potatoes. They taste the same no matter how you cook them. So, use the technique that works best for you!
I've always loved the taste of a good stroganoff, but I hated the expense and preparation of beef tips or steak or roast beef to make it. So I created my own creamy stroganoff.
