AMAZING HUNGARIAN CHICKEN PAPRIKASH WITH DUMPLINGS



Amazing Hungarian Chicken Paprikash With Dumplings image

This recipe has been passed down in my Hungarian family for generations and perfected. I now use boneless chicken despite bone-in being the tradition. I think it makes it a little more friendly without losing any taste.

Provided by Danny P

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 -2 tablespoon oil
4 tablespoons paprika (Hungarian sweet is preferrable, yes, you can taste the difference. Substitute 1 tbsp with half-sharp)
3 tablespoons onion powder
2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
32 ounces chicken broth
10 ounces sour cream
2 1/4 cups water
3/4 cup flour
6 eggs
4 cups flour
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt

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.

AMAZING CHICKEN TORTILLA SOUP!



Amazing Chicken Tortilla Soup! image

This recipe has been a huge hit with everyone who has ever tried it. We make it almost weekly, and the leftovers are eaten immediately. It is also very healthy! It is a little spicy, so if you don't have too much of a tolerance for spicy foods, you may choose to leave out the seeds of the jalapeño. If you love spicy, like we do, extra cayenne pepper adds even more zing. Enjoy!

  • 6. Place the chicken in the saute pan, when the chicken turns golden brown, turn it over and brown the other side as well. It is important to brown both sides to insure that the chicken is completely cooked though.
  • 7. When both sides are nice and brown, add the white wine, and lemon juice.
  • 8. Continue to cook for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. The liquid should reduce approximately in half.
  • 9. Once the liquid is reduced, remove the chicken breasts from the pan and turn off the heat.
  • 10. Check to make sure the chicken breasts are cooked through by turning each piece over and cutting it halfway through with a knife. There should be no visible pink. (If the chicken is not completely cooked through, place in a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes to complete cooking.)
  • 11. Finish the sauce by placing the softened butter in the pan. Using a rubber spatula, work the butter into the sauce as it melts. And add the capers.
  • 12. Pour the sauce on top of the chicken breasts and spoon on remaining capers.

AMAZING PORK CHOP OR CHICKEN MARINADE



Amazing Pork Chop or Chicken Marinade image

This recipe came from my sister-in-law Denise who is an awesome cook, mother and wife! Originally we were using it only for pork but last night I had boneless, skinless chicken breasts thawed and thought, "why not?" The brown sugar flavor really came through with the chicken. I'm guessing it would also be great with venison. I often double the marinade for plenty to boil and pour over the grilled meat.

MOMOSITA'S AMAZING GROUND TURKEY/CHICKEN MEATLOAF (WITH HIDDEN V



Momosita's Amazing Ground Turkey/Chicken Meatloaf (With Hidden V image

This is a Awesome (!) meatloaf that I've adapted from a turkey meatloaf recipe from allrecipes.com. The original recipe calls for 2# of ground turkey, but this recipe is better with 1# of ground chicken and the added shredded veggies. You can use ground turkey, but I personally prefer the milder taste of ground chicken. This meatloaf tastes amazing and is a great way to incorporate more colorful veggies into your menu (or to hide them for picky little ones). Bon apetit!

Chicken is one of the most versatile and widely consumed meats throughout the world. Whether you are a professional chef or a home cook looking to make amazing chicken recipes, there are some valuable tips that you can follow to take your chicken dishes to the next level. In this article, we will discuss some of the best tips for making amazing chicken recipes, regardless of your skill level. 1. Choose High-Quality Chicken The quality of chicken that you choose plays a crucial role in determining the flavor, texture, and overall quality of your dish. When selecting chicken for your recipe, make sure that it is fresh, free-range, and antibiotic-free. This will ensure that your chicken is flavorful, tender, and free from harmful additives that may affect the taste of your dish. Additionally, try to avoid purchasing pre-packaged chicken from the supermarket, as these can often contain preservatives and other additives that can compromise the quality of your recipe. 2. Use the Right Cooking Techniques Chicken can be cooked in a variety of ways, such as grilling, baking, frying, or roasting. Each cooking method requires a different set of techniques and temperature settings, and it is essential to use the right technique for your recipe, depending on the desired texture and flavor of the chicken. For example, grilling chicken will give it a smoky flavor and crispy texture, while baking chicken will give it a tender and juicy texture. Similarly, frying chicken will provide a crispy outer layer, but it might not be the healthiest option. 3. Marinate Your Chicken Marinating your chicken is an excellent way to infuse it with flavor and tenderize the meat. The key to a good marinade is to combine acidic ingredients and flavorful spices that will break down the connective tissues in the meat and add depth to the flavor of the chicken. Some of the best ingredients for a chicken marinade include citrus juice, vinegar, yogurt, buttermilk, and spices such as paprika, garlic, and cumin. However, keep in mind that marinating chicken for too long can cause it to become mushy or over-seasoned, so try to aim for a marinating time between 30 minutes to four hours. 4. Experiment with Different Spices and Herbs Spices and herbs are essential ingredients for making amazing chicken recipes, providing additional layers of flavor to your dish. Some popular herbs and spices that pair well with chicken include rosemary, thyme, parsley, basil, cumin, paprika, and garlic. However, don't be afraid to experiment with other spices and herbs to create unique flavors that will excite your taste buds. Additionally, you can try mixing spices and herbs to create a custom seasoning blend that complements your recipe. 5. Don't Overcook Your Chicken Overcooking chicken is one of the most common mistakes made when preparing chicken dishes. Overcooked chicken tends to be tough, dry, and flavorless, resulting in a mediocre dining experience. It is essential to remove the chicken from heat once it has been cooked to the desired temperature to avoid overcooking. The best way to ensure that your chicken is cooked correctly is by using a meat thermometer, which will tell you when the chicken has reached the appropriate temperature. 6. Add Vegetables and Grains Adding vegetables and grains to your chicken recipes can provide additional nutritional value, texture, and flavor. Some popular vegetables that pair well with chicken include carrots, potatoes, bell peppers, onions, and zucchini. Additionally, you can add grains such as rice, quinoa, or couscous to your chicken dishes to make them more filling and nutritious. However, be sure to adjust your cooking time and temperature accordingly when adding vegetables and grains to your recipes. 7. Use a Variety of Cooking Methods Using different cooking methods for your chicken recipes can provide a diverse range of flavors and textures in your dishes. For example, you can grill chicken to give it a smoky flavor, bread and pan-fry it to create a crispy texture, or roast it to lock in the juices and flavors. Additionally, you can use a slow cooker to create flavorful and tender chicken dishes that are perfect for busy weeknights. Experimenting with different cooking methods can help you find new and exciting ways to prepare chicken. Conclusion Making amazing chicken recipes is an art form that requires careful attention to detail, proper cooking techniques, and high-quality ingredients. By following the tips outlined in this article, you can take your chicken dishes to the next level, regardless of your skill level in the kitchen. Remember to choose high-quality chicken, use the right cooking techniques, marinate your chicken, experiment with spices and herbs, avoid overcooking, add vegetables and grains, and use a variety of cooking methods to make truly amazing chicken recipes that are sure to impress your friends and family.
