RazorJAK -> Why my coworkers love me. (5/13/2008 11:56:17 PM)

We're doing a potluck at work tomorrow as a combination celebration for finishing up dealer school and birthday party for the three people in the class. 

The standard stuff like baked beans,  potato salad,  chili etc etc etc was picked by the others who can cook.  I asked if anyone was allergic to paprika.  :-D

Slow cooker Chicken Paprikash

4 lbs chicken thighs and legs, bone in
1 large sweet white onion, chopped fine
1 large red bell pepper, chopped fine
3 cloves garlic, halved
2 tbsp sweet hungarian paprika
3/4 tbsp smoked paprika
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup sour cream ( do not use low fat, it will curdle )
1 tbsp cornstarch
fresh dill for garnish

In an oil coated heavy skillet, sweat the onion pepper and garlic
Stir in sweet paprika and black pepper
When mixture is tender, move to crockpot, cover bottom of cooking vessel
recoat the same skillet with oil, brown chicken for 4 to 5 minutes, flipping every minute or so.
move chicken to crockpot, layering on top of onion mixture.
cover chicken with smoked paprika
using half of chicken stock, deglaze the skillet over medium high heat, transferring liquid to crockpot
pour in remaining stock

cook on low setting 5 to 6 hours
remove chicken and let it cool slightly, shred the meat from the bone
replace shredded chicken into crockpot, stirring in completely.
cook on high 1/2 hour.

Shortly before serving, stir in cornstarch and sour cream.
(- If you MUST use the low fat sour cream for this dish, you best temper it by stirring in a bit of the sauce before adding the cream to the crockpot. -)

Ladle over a bowl of egg noodles or spaetzle. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream and some fresh dill.

I guess now would be the time to admit that I "cheated" and made the spaetzle last week.

I've found it's a lot more convenient to make a huge batch of it and freeze what I don't use.

But yeah.  it's like my momma always told me ... The quickest way to a girl's vagina is through her stomach.  :-)

[&o]  Darn it, I haven't had brekkie yet and I just had to go and read this... Now I'm famished too. Sounds wonderful - I have got to try this recipe! [:D]

Another good way to serve this ( the way I would serve it if I wasn't doing potluck ) is in these layers:

Spaetzle that had been tossed with a bit of melted butter and parsley, 
covered by a layer of  the paprikash with a bit of dill, 
covered by a layer of sauteed mushrooms or morels ( the season STUNK this year for morels,  I don't think I even foraged a full pound )
all topped with a generous dollop of sour cream.
