Paprika Chicken Recipe #128864
One for when you don't want to turn the oven on! Made on top of the stove in a frypan with a lid or a saucepan. This comes from my book of 'Classic Kiwi Recipes'
Note:Based on the reviews I realised that I use a frypan with a steam hole in the lid so that some of the liquid evaporates. I have altered the recipe to use only 1/2 cup water so that should help too. When bringing the liquids to the boil for the 2-3 mins make sure you do this without the lid to evaporate the liquids to your preference before adding the chicken back in and the sour cream. I hope this extra information helps those who would also like to try this dish. :)
