Important Recipe Notes

  • Wait until the end to add the sour cream. This helps keep the sauce silky and prevents it from curdling during the long cooking time.
  • Cut the chicken into similar-sized pieces. Even-sized chunks cook more evenly and stay tender throughout the slow cooking process.
  • Choose fresh sweet paprika. Paprika is the main flavor in this recipe, so using fresh, good-quality sweet paprika gives the sauce the best color and taste.
  • After stirring in the sour cream, give the sauce a taste and add more salt, pepper, or paprika if needed.
  • This recipe reheats well. Leftovers taste just as delicious the next day. Reheat gently over low heat or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to keep the sauce smooth.
