Polish Chicken Paprikash - Carol Zaleski Wright




Carol Zaleski Wright -"100% Polish - my Mom used to make this all the time and now as I'm really thinking about this, one of the favorite side dishes for this was Haluski - you know, cabbage & egg noodles."

  • 1 whole chicken cut up or can use 4 - 6 boneless chicken breasts;
  • 1 small onion,
  • 1 clove garlic,
  • 3 - 4 tbsp olive or vegetable oil;
  • paprika,
  • 1 16 oz can tomatoes, cut up,
  • 1 green pepper cut anyway you want,
  • salt & pepper to taste,
  • 1/2 pint sour cream.

Brown onion & garlic in oil; sprinkle chicken with paprika and brown evenly. 
Add tomatoes, green pepper, salt & pepper, cover and low heat for one hour.

In last five minutes,
take some of the liquid from the chicken and add to the sour cream until smooth - keep adding until mixture is smooth and then add all back to chicken.
Keep temp low to avoid curdling.

Serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
