Instructions
Creating Chicken Paprikash can be a straightforward process if you follow these easy steps:
1. Heat Olive Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
2. Brown the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the skillet and cook until browned on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
3. Sauté Onions and Garlic: In the same skillet, sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
4. Mix in Paprika: Stir in both types of paprika, allowing them to cook for about 30 seconds to enhance the flavors.
5. Add Chicken Broth: Pour in the chicken broth and stir well, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
6. Return Chicken: Return the browned chicken thighs to the skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
7. Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream and flour until smooth. Gradually add a couple of tablespoons of the hot cooking sauce to the sour cream mixture to temper it.
8. Combine with Sauce: Slowly stir the sour cream mixture back into the skillet, mixing it well. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, do not let it boil.
9. Season: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
10. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and serve hot.
