How To Make hungarian paprikash chicken
-
1Pat dry the chicken pieces very well. Season with salt and pepper. Melt the butter into a large saute pan and place as many of the pieces as will fit comfortably. Brown nicely on both sides. Remove to a plate until all are done.
-
2Place the onions in the pan, reducing heat a bit and stir often until they are softened and coloring. Sprinkle the paprika and flour over the onions, and stir and cook for one minute.
-
3Add everything up to the sour cream into the pan, bring to a boil and add the chicken back in with all the accumulated juices from the plate. Reduce heat to a bare simmer, cover and cook until chicken is done (25-30 min).
-
4Remove chicken and bay leaf. Skim any fat, and bring to a boil, continuing until sauce is quite thick, almost pasty. Remove from the heat.
-
5Add the sour cream, lemon juice and adjust salt and pepper as needed. Serve over noodles.
