  3. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Sauté sliced cremini mushrooms and chopped onion for 6-8 minutes until golden.
  4. Stir in Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
  5. Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, scraping any browned bits. Return chicken and let simmer for about 2 minutes.
  6. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup of sour cream, mixing until smooth. Heat through for another 2-3 minutes. Adjust seasoning and serve.
