Veronica Karlan, my parents' friend, is a lovely Hungarian woman who graciously sent me her recipe when I told her I like to cook! I was salivating when she was describing this dish! Serve with dumplings, mashed potatoes or orzo. I have made this with egg noodles too. * Easy on the paprika as it can be quite piquant. I may double the sauce because I like a lot of sauce. Ingredients:
1 chicken, cut up |
salt, to taste |
garlic, to taste |
olive oil, to saute the chicken |
olive oil, to saute the onion |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 tablespoon flour |
1 tablespoon paprika |
1 cup chicken stock or 1 cup water |
1 tablespoon tomato paste or 1 tablespoon tomato sauce |
1 -2 tablespoon sour cream |
Directions:
1. Season the chicken with salt and garlic and saute in olive oil.
2. In a separate pan, saute the onion in the 1 tablespoons of olive oil until translucent.
3. Add the flour, paprika, chicken stock, and tomato paste to the onions and cook, stirring, until sauce thickens.
4. Transfer the chicken pieces and the sauce into an oven-proof casserole or baking dish and bake, at 350-400 degrees F., for about 30 minutes, or until chicken is done.
5. Just before serving, add the sour cream to the sauce and add more or less sour cream as you like, mixing well.
6. Serve with dumplings, mashed potatoes or orzo.
7. Bon Appetit!
