  1. This is excellent. A new family favorite. Only changes I made was using all chicken breasts and I made a slurry with 1/4 cup of flour and added to sauce before adding sour cream. I served over wide egg noodles.
     
  2. Im hungarian. this recipe is not the traditional hungarian food. with butter you're not getting the same taste. Originally the sour cream is not on it. you put the sour cream on when you serve it, or if you like it with it. this isn't the hungarian chicken paprikas.
     
  3. Made this for Father's day with spaetzle. The whole family Loved it! Great chicken! Thank you! UPDATE: Just have to update...was in a hurry to get to ball game and had chicken out. My daughter requested "that german chicken". Browned the chicken and put it all in the crockpot on high for 4 hours. Was perfect when we got home!
     
  4. This is very close to my mother/grandmother's version (they are hungarian). One little ammendment that my grandmother made was to add 2 T of ketchup --adds a little something. Thanks for posting!
     
  5. This was very tasty and very easy. I served it over egg noodles.

  1. Delicious! I love paprika, so this is right up my alley. I served it with potatoes and also used boneless skinless chicken breasts instead of a whole chicken. Wonderfully tender and the sauce was great!
