- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb chicken pieces cut in cubes
- 2 onions peeled and chopped
- 4 cloves garlic peeled and chopped
- 2 tomatoes chopped
- 10 oz roasted red peppers chopped
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 cups chicken stock
- 1/2 cup sour cream
Add the butter and oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Once the butter is sizzling, add the chicken and brown on all sides. Lift out of the pan.
Add the onions and turn the heat down to medium. Fry for about 10 minutes until softened and browned. Don't be afraid to let them catch a little and turn quite dark - you get a lot of extra flavor like this.
Add the garlic, paprika, and flour. Stir to combine and cook for just a minute or 2, until fragrant.
Add the tomatoes and the roasted bell peppers and use their juices to deglaze the pan. Return the chicken to the pan and pour in the chicken stock.
Bring to a boil then turn down to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
Add the sour cream and stir until melted. Season to taste, and serve hot, with bread, rice or potatoes on the side.
