Ingredients
  

  • 1 kilo chicken quarters, bone in, separate legs and thighs
  • salt and pepper, as desired, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, smashed and minced
  • 3 tablespoons paprika
  • 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 1 can crushed tomatoes, (28 oz can) or whole and chopped
  • 1 cup chicken broth, fresh or from powder, Shortcut
  • 1/2 cup sour cream, Shortcut

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 200 C (400 F). If you do not have an oven safe pan, get out a large baking dish. Season chicken on all sides with salt and pepper as desired.
  • In a large oven safe pan (or if no oven safe pan, use a large non stick pan) heat the olive oil. When hot, add chicken, work in batches if needed, Cook about 8 minutes per side for nice golden brown skin and nearly cooked through. Remove chicken from the pan but leave the fat in the pan. If using a baking dish, place the chicken in the dish.
  • To the pan, add the onion and cook until soft then add the garlic and cook for 1 more minute to make the garlic nice and fragrant. Whisk in the paprika and flour, mix well and cook until the flour is browned, about 1 minute then stir in the tomatoes and broth, stirring until well mixed.
  • If using an oven safe pan, add the chicken back to the pan and place in the oven and bake until the chicken is cooked through, 15-20 minutes, cut a thick piece to check for doneness.
  • If using a baking dish, pour the mixture over the chicken in the dish then bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through, cut a big piece in half to verify doneness.
  • Remove the chicken from the pan or dish, stir in the sour cream, add chicken back and spoon sauce over the chicken.
  • Serve over cooked egg noodles or mashed potatoes. Enjoy.
