AMAZING HUNGARIAN CHICKEN PAPRIKASH WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Set a large pot of water on to boil for the dumplings.
• De-fat, and tenderize chicken. Cut into bite-sized pieces. With oil, brown chicken in a large pan on medium-high heat (6-10 min).
• Add paprika, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth to the chicken in the pan. Stir them to mix. Bring to a boil and then lower heat to simmer and put a lid on and let simmer for 25 minute.
• In a container with a lid (tupperware is good) mix water, flour and sour cream for the chicken. Shaking the mixture aggressively is the best way to ensure a smooth mix. Set aside mixture for later.
• While chicken is simmering, mix all ingredients - eggs, flour, water, and salt - for the dumplings together in a mixing bowl. It should be a pretty thick, dry mix when you are done. If it's too gooey, add small amounts of flour until it is more dry.
• With water boiling, turn down the heat to low. Tip the mixing bowl until the dumpling dough rests at the edge. Using a dull knife (butter knife), slice the dough from the lip of the bowl into small blobs and into the pot. Continue this process until all of the dough has been used. This process takes about 3-5 minute Dipping the knife occasionally into the boiling water will prevent dough from sticking to it.
• Raise heat and boil dumplings for another 5-6 min or so.
• Meanwhile, the chicken should be about done simmering. Using a spoon, draw some of the chicken sauce and put it into the sour cream/flour/water mixture that you had set aside. This is important to prevent sour cream from curdling. Put the lid on and shake the mixture once more. There should be no flour or sour cream chunks in the mixture.
• Finally, stir the mixture into the chicken pan. Mix until consistent. Bring the sauce to a boil stirring occasionally for sauce to thicken.
• Drain the water from the dumplings.
• Usually, chicken and sauce are served on top of the dumplings.

• On medium high heat pour 2 tbsp. of oil and wait till hot. (If you don't wait the chicken will stick to bottom of pan) Fry up the chicken about 5 to 6 minutes on each side. (This is going to simmer in the sauce awhile longer till fully cooked and sauce is ready). Remove from pan and stick in a 250 degree oven to keep warm and finish cooking. --- This is what my husband does.
• Now, add your 1 1/2 tbsp. flour and slowly add your chicken broth all the while stirring. Then, place your bay leaves in. Make sure you stir enough to incorporate the flour into the mixture. Now, cover and lower heat to a simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Or you can set aside the fried chicken and place into your sauce after it is made letting it simmer with the sauce while it thickens.
• Fry up your noodles in a pan with a little butter or heat your Spaetzel dumplings in hot water. Better yet, make them homemade. ****HEALTHIER VERSION:SERVE OVER BAKED SPAGHETTI SQUASH
• It will turn into a nice thick sauce. Now, stir in the sour cream into the mixture. Add your salt and pepper to taste and you are ready to pour this on top of your dumplings or noodles. You are finished. Enjoy.
• ----When my mother in law makes this she adds 1/2 a sliced or chopped onion to the mixture. I think this gives even more flavor and should be added; however, this is my husband's recipe and he hates onions so you won't see them in any of his ingredients. lol
• January 18th, 2014 --- I decided to use chicken tenderloins and see how it worked out. Now you can let the chicken simmer along with the sauce but you may loose some of the breading on the chicken. It really is a preference whether you want the breading perfectly on the chicken then fry them up and place them in the oven to stay warm while you make the sauce. Pour your sauce over hot spaetzel and add your chicken on top. If your in a hurry and don't care then you can cook your chicken up in the sauce.
• October 12, 2014 -- Tony decided to make us some paprikash tonight...It's been awhile so it's always a treat to have.
• December 20th, 2014 --- dinner with friends and family my husband doubled up the recipe and made enough for 8 of us.
• April 14th, 2016 --- Had my parents over for dinner and served this up two ways. Some had it over spaetzel and others baked spaghetti squash.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (CHICKEN PAPRIKA)

Steps:

• In a stock pot or dutch oven saute onions in butter until tender.
• Add water until pot is about 1/3 full.
• Add chicken thighs, garlic powder, salt, pepper and paprika.
• Make sure water is covering the chicken, if not add more until it just covers.
• Bring to a boil and then simmer for 90 minutes, covered, stirring occasionally.
• In the meantime, make the dumplings: Mix the flour, salt, pepper and paprika in a medium bowl until combined.
• Make a well in the center and drop in the egg and about 1/2 cup water.
• Stir and add more water by the tablespoon until you have a sticky dough that just leaves the side of the bowl.
• In a different large pot from chicken, boil water.
• Drop dumpling mixture by the teaspoon into the boiling water.
• (I use a regular teaspoon from my flatware, not a measuring spoon.) If dumpling mix is too sticky to drop from spoon, then dip the spoon into the boiling water, the dumpling should slide right off.
• When dumplings start floating on top, remove them with a slotted spoon or drain them.
• You may have to reduce the heat to see when they are floating.
• About 30 minutes before chicken should be done, add the dumplings to the pot with the chicken.
• After 30 minutes, you should have a delicious dish: the chicken should be tender enough that it is falling off of the bone and the dumplings should have made a thicker sauce out of the liquid the chicken was cooking inches.
