This meal is also from NW Croatia, very popular in area Zagorje and along river Drava. You can notice Hungarian influence. Ingredients:

10 g lard (preferably, but oil can do) |
3 teaspoons ground paprika (red,dry) |
1/4 teaspoon chili |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed |
200 ml white wine |
50 g sour cream |
300 ml water |
Directions:
1. Melt the lard in a pot.
2. Add 2 large onions finely minced and sauté it until the onion is soft and transparent.
3. Chop the chicken into small pieces (mouthfull). Than, add chicken pieces and sauté it until the meat is white.
4. Add wine and sauté it for 5 more minutes.
5. Than add 3 teaspoons of paprika (chili to taste), salt pepper and caraway seeds.
6. Add water to cover the chicken.
