Hungarian Paprikash brings together succulent chicken, rich paprika, and a creamy sauce, making it an easy, comforting meal perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter divided
- 3/4 cup full fat sour cream room temperature
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1/2 medium onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup chicken broth
- chopped fresh parsley optional, to taste
Instructions
- Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise to create thinner cutlets and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat olive oil and one tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat, add chicken, and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until golden. Remove chicken and set aside.
- In a bowl, mix flour into the sour cream until smooth; set aside.
- Reduce heat to medium and add remaining butter and chopped onions to the skillet, sauté until soft and lightly browned (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute.
- Stir in paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and chicken broth, then add the sour cream mixture, whisking until well combined and simmering.
- Return chicken to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until cooked through (165F), making sure the sauce doesn't bubble too much to prevent curdling. Season with salt and pepper, and garnish with parsley if desired.
Notes
You can substitute chicken thighs if preferred.
Serve with rice or pasta for a complete meal.
