Ingredients

  • Servings: 4

  • 1 season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and 1 - 2 tbsp of the paprika.
  • 2 heat the oil in a large pot, sear the chicken breasts on one side, flip the chicken and add the onion and garlic.
  • 3 let the onions sauté slightly, sprinkle with the rest of the paprika, and some more salt and pepper and cover with water.
  • 4 bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until chicken is very tender (it can simmer up to a few hours, just add more water if it evaporates).
  • 5 right before you are ready to serve, remove the chicken from the liquid and keep warm.
  • 6 to make the sauce, combine the sour cream and flour whisk until smooth. once smooth, add some of the cooking liquid and whisk until there are no more lumps.

  • 8 remove bones from chicken breasts and cut into pieces and return to sauce.
  • 9 serve it piping hot over egg noodles or rice.
