CHICKEN IN SOUR CREAM PAPRIKA SAUCE
This is a favorite family meal I serve often during the chilly winter months. Warm, comforting, and fairly easy to fix. Purists beware -while this may remind some of vaguely of a Hungarian Paprikash dish, this is NOT at all claiming to be a traditional recipe - just a comforting chicken dish in a creamy, red sauce that I like to serve over steamed dumplings. You may also serve this over buttered egg noodles, if you choose. If you use fresh mushrooms in this, I recommend peeling off their outer skin first so they do not release so much water.

Steps:
- Lightly dust chicken chunks with some flour- just enough to coat.
- Set a large nonstick stock pot on medium-high heat and add a tsp or two of oil (a little more if your pan is not nonstick)- just enough to prevent sticking.
- Sauté chicken in the pan just to brown lightly on all sides- not to cook all the way through yet.
- Remove from pan using a slotted spoon and set in a covered dish to keep warm.
- Add onions and mushrooms to the pan and sauté until lightly browned, adding another tsp of oil only if needed.
- Add tomato soup (undiluted), then fill the soup can halfway with water and add that water to the pan.
- Stir in sour cream, the bay leaf, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste), and 2 tsp of paprika, either sweet or spicy (in this I prefer the sweet)- your choice.
- Add chicken chunks back to the pan, stir, cover pan, and lower heat and let simmer approximately 30-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked all the way through and is tender (meanwhile, start cooking your dumplings/noodles).
- Check the seasonings, adding a bit more salt, pepper, and/or paprika only if needed.
- Remove bay leaf and serve ladled over freshly cooked dumplings or hot buttered egg noodles in bowls.
