Chicken Paprikash With Dumplings Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil over high heat. In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, 2 teaspoons of salt, and 1/2 cup of water. Gradually stir in 2 1/2 cups of flour to make a stiff batter. Using two spoons, scoop out some batter with one spoon and use the second to scrap off the spoonful of batter into the boiling water. Repeat until several dumplings are cooking. Cook dumplings for 10 minutes or until they float to the top; then lift from the water and drain in a colander or sieve. Rinse with warm water.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt butter and add chicken; cook until lightly browned, turning once. Add onion to skillet and cook 5 to 8 minutes more. Pour in 1 1/2 cups of water, and season with paprika, salt, and pepper; cook 10 minutes more, or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Remove chicken from skillet and keep warm.
• Stir 2 tablespoons of flour into sour cream; then slowly stir into the onion mixture remaining in the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, and cook until thickened.
• To serve, add dumplings to the sour cream/onion mixture, then spoon onto dinner plates adding a piece of chicken.

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.

Steps:

• Add onions to crock pot. Add seasonings, chicken and broth.
• Cover and cook on High 5 to 6 hours.
• Shortly before serving, stir together sour cream or yogurt and cornstarch. Stir into crock pot and thicken.
• Taste and adjust seasonings (sour cream and cornstarch may be omitted if desired). Serve with dumplings (recipe below).
• Dumplings.
• Beat 3 eggs, add 1/3 cup water and 2-1/2 cups flour. Beat with a spoon until smooth. Drop from teaspoon into boiling salted water and cook until dumplings rise to the top, approximately 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat bacon grease in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, salt, red pepper flakes and paprika. Stir together and saute until onion is translucent. Add chicken pieces and pour water over all. Cook over medium heat for 1 hour, adding more water if necessary.
• Stir in tomatoes, reserving liquid. Stir liquid into a medium bowl with flour and sour cream; mix until well blended, then slowly add mixture to chicken, stirring constantly. Cook until mixture is thick.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Cut chicken into 8 pieces, and pat dry with paper towels. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or a heavy frying pan that can go into oven. Sauté chicken over medium-high heat until pieces are golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon, and sprinkle with salt.
• Place onion in same pan, sauté until soft. Remove pan from heat, and let cool for 2 minutes. Stir in mild and hot paprikas.
• Return chicken to pan on top of onions. In a small saucepan, heat chicken stock, and stir in tomato paste. Bring to a boil, stirring until tomato paste dissolves. Pour over chicken.
• Place pan, uncovered, in middle of oven for around 30 minutes. Turn chicken every 10 minutes or so. Sauce will thicken.
• To make dumplings, mix flour with eggs and salt until a thick dough forms. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups stock to a boil. Drop dumpling dough by half teaspoons into stock, simmering for about 4 minutes. Dumplings are done when plumped up and firm. Drain, and stir them into chicken mixture during the last 5 minutes of cooking. Sprinkle with parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• In a stock pot or dutch oven saute onions in butter until tender.
• Add water until pot is about 1/3 full.
• Add chicken thighs, garlic powder, salt, pepper and paprika.
• Make sure water is covering the chicken, if not add more until it just covers.
• Bring to a boil and then simmer for 90 minutes, covered, stirring occasionally.
• In the meantime, make the dumplings: Mix the flour, salt, pepper and paprika in a medium bowl until combined.
• Make a well in the center and drop in the egg and about 1/2 cup water.
• Stir and add more water by the tablespoon until you have a sticky dough that just leaves the side of the bowl.
• In a different large pot from chicken, boil water.
• Drop dumpling mixture by the teaspoon into the boiling water.
• (I use a regular teaspoon from my flatware, not a measuring spoon.) If dumpling mix is too sticky to drop from spoon, then dip the spoon into the boiling water, the dumpling should slide right off.
• When dumplings start floating on top, remove them with a slotted spoon or drain them.
• You may have to reduce the heat to see when they are floating.
• About 30 minutes before chicken should be done, add the dumplings to the pot with the chicken.
• After 30 minutes, you should have a delicious dish: the chicken should be tender enough that it is falling off of the bone and the dumplings should have made a thicker sauce out of the liquid the chicken was cooking inches.

Steps:

• 1. Heat oil and margarine in pot. Add onion, salt and pepper to taste & paprika; cook until tender.
• 2. Stir in salt and chicken stock; bring to a boil. Add chicken and reduce heat.
• 3. Simmer 45 minutes or until chicken is tender. (my Baba's would serve with the chicken in pieces, but, when I make, I cook until chicken is falling off bones and then debone the chicken meat and return meat to pot.)
• 4. Stir together the flour and sour cream in a bowl until well blended. Then stir into the pot of chicken paprikash.
• 5. Heat through, but do not boil.
• 6. Serve with homemade dumplings. (May serve over the dumplings or may add the homemade dumplings to the pot of paprikash and let heat through.) I do the latter. The dumplings sop up all that goodness!
• 7. HOMEMADE DUMPLINGS: 3 cup flour 1/2 cup water 3 eggs 1 teaspoon salt Mix ingredients until smooth. Drop by edge of tablespoon into pot of boiling water. Cook about 10 minutes or until done. Drain. Add to paprikash or serve paprikash over dumplings. *TIP: Dip spoon into boinling water first.
