- 2 pounds of chicken legs and thighs

- 2 large yellow onions, diced

- 5 cloves of garlic, minced

- 1 cup of sour cream

- 2 tablespoons of flour

- Fresh parsley for garnish

- 2 cups of white wine

- 2 cups of homemade chicken stock (low-sodium)

- Three different types of paprika for a rich and complex flavor profile

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and sear them until golden brown on all sides. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.

2. In the same pot, add the diced onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant.

3. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, and stir to combine. Cook for a few minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

4. Deglaze the pot with white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow the wine to reduce slightly.

5. Return the seared chicken to the pot. Add the chicken stock and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

6. Stir in the three types of paprika, adjusting the amount to taste for a balance of flavor and color.

7. Cover the pot and let the chicken simmer gently until it is cooked through and tender.

8. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream with a small amount of the hot sauce from the pot to temper it. Then, stir the sour cream mixture into the pot to thicken and enrich the sauce.

9. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Chicken paprika is best enjoyed with buttered noodles, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce. This recipe brings out the best flavors of paprika and creates a hearty, satisfying meal that will surely become a family favorite.
