Jaromir Jagr's Stick Handling Chicken Paprikash

All Star Feast Cookbook, p. 59

2 pounds chicken pieces

1 tablespoon paprika

3 ounces margarine

1 medium onion, chopped

Salt and pepper to taste

Water (3 to 4 cups, depending on desired quantity of sauce)

16 ounces sour cream

½ cup flour

Saute onion in margarine until tender. Add the paprika and chicken pieces. When chicken is browned, cover and continue to cook until the chicken is done. Add water as needed so chicken will not burn. Once meat is cooked, add 3 to 4 cups water. 

I went with three cups - I like my sauce thicc.

Bring to a boil. Mix flour into the sour cream. 

Speaking of thick, this is gonna be a little hard to stir. 

Stir very well. Add this mixture to the chicken and boiling water. Stir and simmer until the sauce has thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Serve with buttered noodles or pasta.

Served over buttered pasta with one of Matt's smoothies made with (to tie into the theme of the dish) "Jagr-t."

My Rating: 3/5 "For a paprikash, this doesn't have very much paprika. It probably needs three times the amount it had in order to really pack some flavor. The sour cream/flour mixture kind of overwhelms everything else. But despite it's blandness it's a filling comfort food that would be satisfying on a cold winter night."
