Paprikacsirke - Chicken and Peppers

This is the main course of our Hungarian feast. We both love chicken and it is a tasty way to eat it.
The cooking time is reasonable, so we started with it after we had eaten our Szegediner fish soup.
Preparation time in total is about 50 minutes.


A dish from Hungary without any red peppers, they may be mild or may be hot, is not complete. Seasoning with paprika powder is a must too.

recipe for 3:
3 chicken thighs
75 g smoked bacon bits
2 tbsp olive oil
2 onions
2 clove of garlic
1 red bell pepper
2 tomatoes
1 red chili
1 tsp smoked paprika
200 g sour cream
1 tsp mild paprika powder
100 mlk white wine
250 ml chicken stock
salt and pepper

Chop onions, garlic, chili, tomatoes and bell pepper .
Fry the bacon bits in a pan, later add onions, garlic and chili.


After a couple of minutes, add the bell peppers and cook 4 more minutes.
Get everything out of the pan.
Season the chicken with salt and pepper and in the same pan with a little oil brown them on both sides.

Put the veggies on top and add the wine and stock and bring to a boil, close the lid and reduce the heat and let it simmer for 35-40 min.
Mix sour cream with smoked and mild paprika powder, salt and pepper and finish the sauce with it.
