Tray-Baked Chicken Stroganoff is a one-pan wonder that combines the classic Russian dish of Stroganoff with the convenience of tray baking. Instead of frying the chicken in a pan and serving it with a creamy sauce, this recipe uses a roasting tin to bake the chicken with tomatoes, mushrooms and chicken stock. The result is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for a family dinner or a meal to share with friends. The smoked paprika gives the chicken a smoky and slightly spicy flavor that pairs well with the creamy sour cream and fresh chives. Serve the dish with rice or crusty bread to mop up the tasty sauce.

Instructions

1.	Preheat the oven to 200 C / 180 C fan / Gas 6.
2.	Rub the chicken drumsticks with smoked paprika and season with salt and black pepper.
3.	In a large roasting tin, mix together chicken stock, minced garlic and cherry tomatoes.
4.	Nestle the chicken drumsticks into the tomato mixture, then scatter with halved mushrooms.
5.	Roast for 45-50 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
6.	Stir in sour cream and chopped chives before serving.
