MOM'S CHICKEN PAPRIKA

Steps:

• In a shallow dish or bowl, combine 1/2 cup four, seasoned salt, thyme and ground black pepper. Mix together; coat chicken pieces in this mixture and fry in shortening in a large skillet until lightly browned on all sides.
• Sprinkle paprika and garlic salt over chicken. Add hot water to skillet and simmer for 30 minutes. Placed onion rings on top of chicken pieces and simmer for another 30 minutes. Remove chicken, with onions on top, to a serving platter and reserve.
• In a small bowl, blend 2 tablespoons flour with milk and add to liquid in skillet. Cook, stirring, until thickened. Pour thickened mixture over chicken and serve with hot cooked white rice or egg noodles, if desired.

CHICKEN PAPRIKASH

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onions, season with salt and pepper and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, paprika and cayenne and cook, stirring, until dark red in color, 2 minutes. Add the flour and the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in the broth and sugar and cook until the sauce is thickened, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken to the sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook over medium-low heat until the chicken is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and vinegar. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Serve with crusty bread if desired!

CHICKEN PAPRIKA

Steps:

• Mix flour, 2 tablespoons paprika, salt, and pepper on a shallow plate. Dip chicken pieces in mixture to coat.
• Heat vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir chicken in hot oil until browned completely, about 5 minutes. Remove chicken with a slotted spoon to a bowl, reserving oil and drippings in skillet.
• Cook and stir onion and garlic in the reserved drippings until tender, about 5 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet. Pour chicken stock over the chicken mixture. Stir tomato paste into the chicken stock until integrated completely.
• Bring the chicken stock to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the skillet, and cook at a simmer until the chicken is cooked through, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Whisk sour cream, 1 teaspoon paprika, and cornstarch together in a small bowl; stir into the chicken mixture and cook until hot, 2 to 3 minutes.

PAPRIKA ROAST CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. In a small bowl, mix paprika, 2 teaspoons coarse salt, and teaspoon pepper. Season chicken cavity with about 1/4 of paprika mixture. Place chicken, breast side up, on a rack set in a roasting pan. Using kitchen twine, tie legs together; tuck wing tips under.
• Rub chicken with oil; sprinkle all over with remaining paprika mixture. Roast until very dark, 15 to 20 minutes. Cover loosely with aluminum foil; continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a platter, and cover loosely with foil; let rest 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

ROASTED PAPRIKA CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Tuck the wings under the chicken; tie legs together with a piece of kitchen twine. Rub with butter.
• In a small bowl, combine paprika, salt, cayenne, and thyme. With dry hands, sprinkle chicken with spice mixture; don't rub. Place chicken in a cast-iron skillet.
• Bake until coating is blackened, 30 to 45 minutes. Tent with foil; continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees and juices run clear, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove chicken, and let stand 5 minutes before carving. Pour pan juices into a glass measuring cup; skim fat from top. Strain, and serve sauce with chicken.

MOM'S CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS (CHICKEN PAPRIKA)

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.

MOM'S CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, rosemary, chile flakes, nutmeg, salt, pepper and garlic. Place the chicken pieces in a resealable bag and pour the marinade in, coating all of the meat. Allow the chicken to marinate, refrigerated, 1 to 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Allow the temperature to come up to 375 degrees F.
• Remove the chicken from the marinade. Place the chicken pieces skin-side up on the indirect-heat side of the grill and close the lid. Cook the chicken until almost cooked through, about 10 minutes. Move the chicken pieces over to the direct heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN PAPRIKAS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a very large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender. Add the paprika.
• Sprinkle the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt. Place in the skillet with the onion. Add stock, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 40 minutes. Turn the chicken and simmer until tender, another 40 minutes.
• Put the sour cream into a bowl and stir in 1/2cup broth from the skillet. Stir mixture back into the skillet. Dissolve cornstarch in 1 tablespoon cold water. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the skillet and cook for 3 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Serve with oven rice (see recipe).
