 Brian (Maryland) says:
Try adding some sour cream to dumpling batter. If gravy does not thicken enough, sprinkle in some wondra flour instead of crisco. A oil of your choice can be used. I have been making chicken paprika for 30 years. Learned from my grandma. The original recipe she taught me is about the same as this one. I have tried to cut some of the fat out over the years
