Eastern European Cuisine

Since the Czech recipe for Chicken Paprikash was very popular, I thought to add the Hungarian recipe for this dish.

Enjoy!

  • 1 chicken (about 2.5 lbs)
  • 1 large onion
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 1 heaped tbsp ground paprika
  • salt

  • 1 large tomato
  • 1.5 cups sour cream
  • 1-2 tbsp flour

Preparation:

  • Cut the chicken in pieces
  • Heat the oil and cook the chopped onion. Remove from heat and add the ground paprika.
  • Add the chicken pieces and fry for few minutes
  • Reduce heat, season the chicken and cover with a lid
  • Add the chopped peppers and tomato
  • Add a little water and continue to cook.
  • Combine the sour cream with flour and add when chicken is cooked. Simmer for another 4-5 minutes.
