Chicken Paprikash Like Mom Never Made



This is a tomato and onion based recipe with plenty of paprika and a sour cream sauce.

Ingredients

2 lbs boneless, skinless, chicken thighs
Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
1 cup crushed tomatoes
1 cup chicken stock
2 tbsp vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves minced
1 large onion, sliced
3 tablespoons Hungarian paprika (hot or sweet) or smoky paprika (pimenton)
A little more paprika to sprinkl on the chicken
3/4 cup sour cream

Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

In a hot pot, add the vegetable oil. Sear the chicken for 5 minutes on one side then 5 minutes on the other side. Remove the chicken to a plate. Sprinkle some paprika on the chicken.

Dump the sliced onions into the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Stir until the onions start to sweat.

Add the garlic and continue to stir for another 5 minutes or until the onions are translucent.

Add the tomatoes, chicken stock and paprika. Stir.

Add the chicken back into the pot and cover. Simmer for 30 minutes.

Take the chicken out again and add the sour cream to the sauce and stir.

Plate the chicken with the yellow rice from the chili recipe http://lonelyguyscookbook.com/kitchen-sink-chili/ or with buttery, egg noodles.

Generously ladle the sauce over everything.
