Very good. I put 2 chicken stock cubes in mine.

This is a excellent chicken recipe. The only thing I did different is that instead of butter I use oil to cook the onions and I don't cook the sour cream in as some people don't like it you can always add the sour cream after. Also the dumpling recipe is miss printed as you need to add 1 1/2 cups of water to it to make it the right consistency. You can also add pepper and I add tomato paste to mine. This is how my mother does hers. Enjoy and thanks for the reminder on this one I grew up eating this as one of our staple meals. I too am Hungarian.

I haven't tried this yet...but am wondering where does a person get Hungarian paprika?? I'm very keen to try this recipe! :-)

Romi, you should be able to find it at your local supermarket. Comes in a small shaker-type tin like what they use for pepper. Enjoy!

I am blessed to have a Hungarian dad and my grandmother. Before my dad's sister passed away she taught us to use macaroni instead of dumplings. The secret to the macaroni is not to over cook it, you want it kinda firm. I haven't used dumplings in many years. Try it you will love it.

Yummy

Using a Kitchen Aid mixer with beater/paddle to make the spaezle or flour dumplings takes less than a minute. I also use a spaezle maker or large hole "colander" over boiling water for the dumplings. Consistent in size and texture.

This is how my dad used to make it! (except he used lard instead of butter...) Beautiful!!!

Better if you add a can of evaporated milk. I use skinless chicken breasts and canned chicken broth.

The real secret to this recipe as my grandmother and mother taught, was to add the dumplings from their cooking water to the sauce in a tightly lided pot and put into the oven @ 275°F for 45 min. and you will have the most lovely sauced and steamed dumplings ever!! DJPetrick

Very close to my grandmother's recipe. We always had dumplings and sour cream with chicken paprikas but used macaroni and no sour cream when mom used veal stew meat instead. I was taught to add a tbsp of flour to the sour cream and then temper it with a bit of gravy before adding it back to the pot to keep it from separating. Don't be afraid to add more paprika if you like it. Look for real Hungarian paprika in the red/white container at your local grocery store. And always serve with cucumber salad and a good rye bread.

The only difference with the original recipe which came from my great-Hungarian grandmother is that first you have to steal the chicken :) In the days of old, gypsys used to find a chicken somewhere near a farm in the country side - or you can just buy one at the market. We add chopped green bell pepper as well and lots of paprika - Hungarian is the best. Enjoy!

Dinner tonight. Thinking about spaetzle on the side and green beans with roasted slivered almonds.

I made only the dumpling recipe. These are just like what my mom and her family made. A little salty but That can be adjusted for taste. I have searched for many years. I finally found it.

The dough is a beast to mix. What does "cutting it off a plate" mean? This is a really good recipe. Very simple and inexpensive.
