Best 3 Chicken Paprika Paprikás Csirke Recipes

EASY HUNGARIAN CHICKEN PAPRIKASH

Steps:

• Dice the onion, and cut the chicken breasts and thighs into bite-size chunks.
• In a large skillet, sauté the onion in the butter over medium heat until translucent. Meanwhile, toss the diced chicken pieces with about two tablespoons of flour. Add the coated chicken to the pan, and brown on all sides. Once the chicken is browned, add the sweet paprika, salt, and pepper, and stir well.
• Slowly add the chicken broth to the pan, and use a wooden spoon to scrape and deglaze the bottom of the skillet. Cover and simmer on low for 25 minutes. While the chicken is simmering, prepare the No Yolks noodles according to the directions on the package.
• Remove the chicken to a plate. Whisk about one tablespoon of flour into the drippings left in the skillet to thicken. Turn off the heat and stir in the sour cream. Add the chicken back to the sauce and stir to coat.
• Season to taste with additional salt, and serve immediately over broad egg noodles.

CHICKEN PAPRIKASH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400. Season the chicken aggressively with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large, heavy, oven-safe sauté pan or Dutch oven set over high flame, until the butter is foaming. Sear the chicken in batches, skin-side down, until it is golden and crisp, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Then turn the chicken over, and repeat on the other side, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate to rest.
• Pour off all but a tablespoon or 2 of the accumulated fat in the pot. Return the pot to the stove, over medium heat, and add the onion. Cook, stirring frequently with a spoon to scrape off any browned bits of chicken skin, until the onion has softened and gone translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Add the garlic, and stir again, cooking it until it has softened, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Add the paprika and the flour, and stir well to combine, then cook until the mixture is fragrant and the taste of the flour has been cooked out, approximately 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add tomatoes and broth, whisk until smooth and then nestle the chicken back in the pan, skin-side up. Slide the pan or pot into the oven, and cook until the chicken has cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly, approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, set a large pot of heavily salted water to boil over high heat. Cook noodles in the water until they are almost completely tender, approximately 7 to 8 minutes. Drain the noodles, and toss them in a bowl with the remaining butter, then toss again to coat.
• Place the chicken on top of the noodles, then add the sour cream to the sauce, stir to combine and ladle it over the whole.

CHICKEN PAPRIKA (CSIRKE PAPRIKASH)

Steps:

• Melt 1 tbsp margarine in a large skillet. Cook mushrooms over medium heat until medium tender. Drain moisture from skillet. Melt another 3 tbsp margarine in the skillet, adding sliced onions and garlic. Cook until onions are tender. Stir in the vinegar and paprika.
• Meanwhile, mix flour and next 3 ingredients. Dredge the chicken breasts through the flour mixture. Place in the skillet with the vegetables, pushing them up against the side so the chicken will brown. Cook 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Add water and chicken bouillon granules. Heat to a boil, then reduce to low and cover for 1 hour.
• Prepare the egg noodles according to the directions. Add 2 tbsp margarine and parsley/cilantro to taste.
• While the noodles are finishing up, remove the chicken from the heat. Add the sour cream. Add salt and pepper as needed.
• I prefer to cut my chicken up into bite size pieces and mix with the noodles. Another option is to serve the chicken on top of the noodles, topped with the sauce. It is just easier for kids and the "knife-challenged" to eat it if it is already cut up!
