Csirke Paprikas is the Hungarian term for this delicious dish. My mom has been making this for 35 years! Recently she went to visit Budapest and found this little cafe that served it. She liked it so well, she modified her recipe to closely match that, and here it is, enjoy! Serve over rice or egg noodles.

Time 1h55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 slices bacon, diced
1 onion, chopped
4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon paprika, or more to taste
½ cup water, or more as needed
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cold water
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup water
1 teaspoon butter

Steps:

  • Place a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat and cook bacon until crisp, about 4 minutes. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring once or twice. Add chicken and tomatoes. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Stir in paprika. Pour in 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup water and season with salt. Cover and simmer over low heat for 25 minutes. Remove lid and cook an additional 5 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to a plate and keep warm. Mix sour cream and 1 teaspoon cold water together in a small bowl. Add mixture to the pot and stir until gravy is evenly colored and smooth. Return chicken to the pot, cover and simmer on low for another 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, stir flour and salt together in a bowl. In a separate bowl mix egg and water together. Gradually add flour mixture and stir together until dumpling batter is very thick and mixture breaks from a spoon.
  • Bring 2 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add 2 teaspoons salt.
  • Drop 1/2 teaspoons of dumpling batter into the boiling water. Dumplings will rise to the surface in about 1 minute; boil for 5 minutes more. Use a slotted spoon to transfer dumplings to a bowl. Repeat steps until batter is used up and all dumplings are cooked. Mix 1 teaspoon of butter with cooked dumplings. Add dumplings to chicken mixture in the pot and allow to heat through.

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.

Time 40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 pinch ground black pepper

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your paprikash will be. Look for fresh, free-range chicken, sweet paprika, and high-quality chicken broth.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When searing the chicken, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken until it's golden brown: Searing the chicken until it's golden brown will help to develop flavor.
  • 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 deep red in color and has a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Don't boil the sauce: Bring the sauce to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low. Boiling the sauce will make it too thick and gloopy.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Paprikash is traditionally served with egg noodles, mashed potatoes, or rice. You can also serve it with a side of vegetables.

Conclusion:

Chicken paprikash is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
