CREAMY PAPRIKA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into bite-size cubes and place in a medium bowl. Drizzle over a few tablespoons of olive oil, red wine vinegar, a teaspoon of paprika and half the oregano, thyme and chilli flakes. Mix to combine.
• Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken in batches and cook until seared on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
• In the same pan, heat a tablespoon of oil then add the onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add the remaining paprika, oregano, thyme and chilli flakes.
• Pour in the white wine and stock to deglaze the pan. Allow to simmer and reduce for a few minutes then stir in the sour cream, salt, pepper and pinch of sugar.
• Add the chicken back to the pan along with any of its resting juices and cook for another 5-7 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
• Scatter over fresh parsley and serve with crusty bread or steamed rice.
