Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Add the flour to the skillet and whisk it into the melted butter to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until lightly golden.

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth (or water) until smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring until it begins to thicken.

Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the sour cream and chopped dill until well combined. Be careful not to boil the sauce after adding the sour cream, as it can curdle.

💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For a richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of sour cream, or a mix of both.
- ✓If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little more chicken broth or water to reach your desired consistency.
- ✓Ensure the heat is low when adding sour cream to prevent it from separating.
