Paprika Chicken
A colorful and contemporary version of a Hungarian classic calls for yogurt in place of sour cream. It serves beautifully atop egg noodles.
CHICKEN
3/4 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons sweet Hungarian paprika, or to taste
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/3 cup nonfat plain yogurt
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 to 4 (1 pound) Gold'n Plump® Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
GARNISH
of paprika
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
Stir together chicken broth, tomato paste, paprika, thyme, and pepper in a measuring cup. Set aside.
In separate measuring cup or small bowl, stir together yogurt and flour. Set aside.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms, onion, and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until vegetables are softened but not browned.
Add chicken to skillet, stirring for about 2 minutes or until it is no longer pink on outside. Stir in chicken broth mixture.
Reduce heat to medium; cover and cook for about 5 minutes, or until sauce is bubbly and chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Reduce heat to low; add yogurt mixture, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. (Do not allow mixture to come to a boil.)
Garnish servings with paprika and parsley.
Supermarket paprika will do in a pinch but for best flavor, use imported Hungarian paprika. You can find it in specialty stores and gourmet shops. When stored in a cool, dark place, it'll keep for up to 6 months.
2 teaspoons jarred minced garlic may be substituted for fresh minced garlic.
Nutritional information may change when substituting your chicken product. If you choose to substitute frozen chicken for this recipe, it's best to thaw before cooking.
