Grandma’s Chicken Goulash

Ingredients:
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 large sweet onions diced (about 1/½ lbs)
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts sliced into bite-size pieces
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 3 tablespoons hot paprika*
  • 2-3 cups chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 4-6 ounces of sour cream
  • *Use 1 tablespoon of crushed red peppers and 3 tablespoons of regular paprika if you can’t find the hot paprika.
Preparation Method:
  1. Pour the olive oil into a large saucepan and over medium heat sauté the onions until they are soft and browning; takes about 15-20 minutes.
  2. Turn heat higher and add chicken, stirring often until no longer pink.
  3. Add salt, flour, and paprika and mix well.
  4. Add chicken broth a cup at a time adding more if needed to cover the chicken to make a  sauce and mix well.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer covered until the chicken is cooked about 45 minutes.
  6. Add sour cream and cook for a further 10 minutes.
  7. Taste to make sure you have enough seasoning before you serve.
  8. We like to eat our goulash with either rice or rotini pasta twists or hot peas.
  9. If the gravy is too thick add a little more broth * Add extra crushed red peppers if you like it HOT!
  10. This dish freezes well and tastes even better the next day!
