How To Make chicken paprikash
-
Step 1Generously season the thighs with ground sea salt and freshly ground black pepper; set aside.
-
Step 2In a Dutch oven over medium heat, add oil and clarified butter. When it gets hot, working in batches, place the thighs and cook until nicely browned on both sides, about 7 to 8 minutes.
-
Step 3Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside while cooking the other pieces.
-
Step 4Add the onions to the pot and sprinkle on a generous amount of ground sea salt. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, and also scraping the bottom of the pot to dislodge any brown bits.
-
Step 5To this, add red peppers and sauté for 1 ½ minutes. Add pressed garlic, tomato paste and finely diced Roma tomatoes; sauté for only 1 minute.
-
Step 6Add flour and cook for 3 minutes, stirring continuously and scraping the bottom of the pot.
-
Step 7A few minutes later, add sweet, smoked and hot paprika and quickly stir for just 30 seconds. Pour in chicken broth and red wine; stir well.
-
Step 8Return the chicken thighs back to the pot including any accumulated juices, stir, increase the heat to high and bring the stew to a boil. When it gets there, cover, reduce the heat to medium- low and cook for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally while scraping the bottom of the pot in case it sticks.
-
Step 9When the cooking time is up, gently stir in sour cream and heavy cream; taste and adjust if necessary.
-
Step 10Serve over a bed of egg noodles, dumplings or spätzle and sprinkle on some fresh chopped parsley.
