Method
0 of 10 done- Chop the onion finely and mince the garlic clove.
- Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.
- In a pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the paprika and cook for 1 minute to release the flavours.
- Add the chicken pieces to the pan and cook until they are browned all over, about 5-7 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken stock and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Lower the heat and stir in the sour cream. Make sure the mixture does not boil, as this can cause the sour cream to curdle.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
