Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken breasts cut into one inch pieces
  • 1 Onion roughly chopped into large pieces
  • 2 Cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 Tablespoons sweet paprika divided
  • 1 Teaspoon mustard
  • 4 Tablespoons flour
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 Tablespoon butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic crushed
  • Chopped fresh parsley
  • Fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  • Combine the flour with 1 tbsp of paprika, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Coat the chicken in the flour mixture and set aside.
  • In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, garlic and onions. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until soft and browned, around 5 - 8 minutes. Remove onions from pan and set aside
  • Shake off excess flour from the chicken and set it aside for after.
    Using the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the chicken. Brown the chicken for 3 - 4 minutes and remove from pan. Don't overcrowd the pan so you may need to cook the chicken in batches.
  • Deglaze the pan with 2 tbsp of the stock. Add stock and stir to remove any brown bits on the bottom.
  • With the same skillet set over medium heat, now add the butter, remaining paprika, mustard and excess flour from the chicken.. Using a whisk, stir it until it forms a paste, about 30 seconds to a minute.
  • Start adding your stock gradually, whisking as you go to get out all the lumps. After about 2 minutes you will have a smooth sauce. Bring to a simmer.
  • Add the chicken and onions back to the pan and give a really good stir.
  • Add the sour cream and stir well. Reduce heat to low, cover and leave to simmer for 15 minutes
  • Serve topped with fresh parsley on top of rice or pasta.
