Chicken appears in Hungarian cookery often but it is never boring because
there are so many ways to serve it. Authentic Chicken Paprikas never has
tomatoes in it. Chicken Paprika Stew does.

Make plenty of dumplings to go with it. It is so good.

Brown onions in shortening. Add seasonings and chicken, brown 10 minutes.
Do not let burn. Add tomatoes, bay leaf and water, cover and let simmer
slowly until it is tender. It will smell wonderful! To thicken gravy, mix
into a paste 2 Tbs. soft butter with 2 Tbs. flour and stir into the stew
liquid. Cook a few minutes until the liquid thickens. Serve with dumplings
or wide noodles. Top each serving with sour cream. Posted to MM-Recipes
