CHICKEN IN SOUR CREAM PAPRIKA SAUCE



Chicken in Sour Cream Paprika Sauce image

This is a favorite family meal I serve often during the chilly winter months. Warm, comforting, and fairly easy to fix. Purists beware -while this may remind some of vaguely of a Hungarian Paprikash dish, this is NOT at all claiming to be a traditional recipe - just a comforting chicken dish in a creamy, red sauce that I like to serve over steamed dumplings. You may also serve this over buttered egg noodles, if you choose. If you use fresh mushrooms in this, I recommend peeling off their outer skin first so they do not release so much water.

Categories     Stew

Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into chunks
flour, as needed for dusting chicken
2 -3 teaspoons canola oil, as needed
1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained or 6 -8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced, stemmed, and peeled
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed tomato soup (reduced fat is OK)
0.5 (10 3/4 ounce) can cold water (use soup can)
1 cup sour cream (light or regular but NOT fat free)
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons sweet Hungarian paprika, to taste (or spicy)
freshly cooked egg noodles or steamed bread dumplings

Steps:

  • Lightly dust chicken chunks with some flour- just enough to coat.
  • Set a large nonstick stock pot on medium-high heat and add a tsp or two of oil (a little more if your pan is not nonstick)- just enough to prevent sticking.
  • Sauté chicken in the pan just to brown lightly on all sides- not to cook all the way through yet.
  • Remove from pan using a slotted spoon and set in a covered dish to keep warm.
  • Add onions and mushrooms to the pan and sauté until lightly browned, adding another tsp of oil only if needed.
  • Add tomato soup (undiluted), then fill the soup can halfway with water and add that water to the pan.
  • Stir in sour cream, the bay leaf, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste), and 2 tsp of paprika, either sweet or spicy (in this I prefer the sweet)- your choice.
  • Add chicken chunks back to the pan, stir, cover pan, and lower heat and let simmer approximately 30-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked all the way through and is tender (meanwhile, start cooking your dumplings/noodles).
  • Check the seasonings, adding a bit more salt, pepper, and/or paprika only if needed.
  • Remove bay leaf and serve ladled over freshly cooked dumplings or hot buttered egg noodles in bowls.

CRISPY SOUR CREAM AND ONION CHICKEN



Crispy Sour Cream and Onion Chicken image

Picture sour cream and onion dip slathered on chicken cutlets, dredged in panko bread crumbs, and fried until crisp like a potato chip, and you'll envision this recipe. The marinade doesn't just deliver flavor here: The lactic acid in the sour cream also keeps the thin chicken breasts juicy. Shower the crispy chicken with fresh chives and lemon juice, or, if you crave something creamy for dunking, pair it with a dip of sour cream, lemon juice and chives.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     weekday, poultry, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally (see Tip) and pounded 1/8-inch thick, or use 4 chicken cutlets (don't split or pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives (or 1 tablespoon dried chives), plus more for serving
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 cups panko bread crumbs
Canola oil, for frying
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, chives and 1 tablespoon onion powder. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and turn to coat. (Chicken can sit in the marinade for up to 8 hours. Refrigerate, then let come to room temperature before cooking.)
  • In a shallow bowl or lipped plate, stir together the panko and remaining 1 tablespoon onion powder; season with salt and pepper.
  • Working one at a time, press the chicken breasts into the panko, using your fingers to pack the panko onto both sides of the chicken, and place on a large plate or a sheet pan.
  • Line a plate with paper towels. Heat 1/8-inch canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Drop a piece of panko in: If it sizzles, the oil's ready. Add a chicken cutlet (or two, if they can fit comfortably), and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding and heating more oil as needed, and removing excess panko from the pan with a slotted spoon.
  • Serve chicken with more chives and lemon wedges for squeezing.
