Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup all-purpose flour, plus 2 tablespoons
2 tablespoons dried marjoram
3 teaspoons sweet paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
One 3- to 4-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces
3 large onions, chopped (about 4 cups)
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 red bell peppers, diced (about 2 cups)
One 4.56-ounce tube tomato paste (about 1/2 cup)
2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 cups sour cream
1/2 cup chopped fresh dill

Steps:

  • Combine 1 cup of the flour, 1 tablespoon of the marjoram, 1 teaspoon of the paprika and some salt and black pepper in a low-sided dish. Stir until blended.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat; add the butter and oil. Heat until the butter has melted and the oil is shiny.
  • Sprinkle the chicken all over with salt and black pepper. Next, dredge the chicken in the seasoned flour on all sides. Shake to remove excess flour before placing the chicken into the hot pot. Working in batches if necessary, sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the onions to the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Sprinkle with the sugar and some salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and turned golden, about 12 minutes. Add the garlic and bell peppers and cook for 1 minute more. Add the tomato paste, chicken broth, red pepper flakes and the remaining 1 tablespoon marjoram and 2 teaspoons sweet paprika; stir to combine.
  • Place the chicken back in the pot, nestling it in the sauce. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, until the chicken is very tender and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 50 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken to a serving dish. Mix the sour cream with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour in a medium bowl. Stir the mixture into the sauce.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken and sprinkle generously with dill.

CHICKEN PAPRIKA



Chicken Paprika image

My whole family, full of picky eaters, loves this dish, and it's great for freezing and reheating on a cold day or for an easy dinner on cold nights. This dish comes out as more like a stew than a meat with a sauce. Serve over egg noodles or hot cooked rice. Goes great with fresh, crusty pumpernickel bread for hearty winter meal. Easy to make and can be kept on low heat on the stove for lengthy parties.

ZIPPY'S FRIED CHICKEN



Zippy's Fried Chicken image

I found this recipe on the KaukauTime blog. I haven't tried it yet, but wanted to save it since I miss the taste of Zippy's! Note: The secret of Zippy's Crispy Fried Chicken is the paprika and flour. The paprika and flour will make the chicken crispy without it being overly battered. Adding a bit of cornstarch will make it even more crispier if you prefer it this way. The more paprika you add will also make the chicken darker.

Categories     Chicken

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3 -4 lb) fresh whole broiler-fryer chickens
2 cups wheat flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
2 teaspoons white pepper
1 tablespoon msg (I'm not advocating for this one..you can)
2 teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper
1 pinch coarse hawaiian rock salt (or two!) or 1 pinch kosher salt (or two!)
canola oil (for deep frying)
warm water, to cover chicken

Steps:

  • Rinse and cut up chicken into parts easy for frying.
  • Drain and in colander and put in clean mixing bowl and cover with warm water.
  • Add 2 big pinches of Hawaiian rock or kosher salt to bowl to create a salt brine for the chicken.
  • Soak chicken parts for 10 minutes.
  • Drain in colander and do not rinse.
  • In another mixing bowl add dry ingredients such as flour, garlic powder, paprika, white/black pepper, and MSG.
  • Mix with wire whisk or blend in a blender to remove flour lumps.
  • Add drained chicken pieces to mixing bowl of dry ingredients.
  • Dredge chicken parts well to make sure it covers the whole piece.
  • Shake excess flour off of chicken and set aside on tray or cookie sheet while you're heating up oil.
  • Heat canola oil in wok, deep frying pan, or dedicated deep fryer with oil enough to cover chicken pieces.
  • Heat oil to 350-375°F.
  • Add chicken in 2 batches.
  • Chicken batches will cook for approximately 15mins or until golden brown all over.
  • Drain on paper towels and keep in 150°F oven to keep warm.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your dish the best flavor. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't Overcook the Chicken: Chicken is a delicate protein that can easily become dry and tough if it's overcooked. Cook the chicken until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Use a Good Quality Paprika: Paprika is the key ingredient in this dish, so make sure you use a good quality one. Look for a paprika that is鲜艳的红色 and has a smoky, slightly sweet flavor.
  • Adjust the Heat to Your Liking: This dish can be made as mild or as spicy as you like. If you don't like spicy food, you can reduce the amount of paprika or cayenne pepper you use. If you like it spicy, you can add more.

Conclusion:

Zippy Paprika Chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The paprika and cayenne pepper give the chicken a slightly smoky, spicy flavor, while the sour cream and yogurt add a creamy, tangy touch. Serve it over rice or noodles, or with a side of roasted vegetables.
