- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 1 whole chicken
- 1 large onion
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 red peppers
- 1 large tomatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup sour cream (Opcional)
directions
- Cut up chicken you can keep skin on or remove according to preference or diet. My Mom would always season the chicken with salt and let it sit for a while in a colander to lose any extra water that might remain after washing.
- Chop onion very fine and saute in a heavy pot or dutch oven until it softens then add paprika be very careful not to burn the paprika because it will taste bitter.
- I remove the onion/paprika mixture and brown the chicken on high heat adding oil if needed. Once browned I return the onion mix to the pot, season with salt and pepper turn down the heat, cover and let cook for about 15 minutes. Dice tomato and pepper leaving a few pepper rings for garnish add them to chicken cover and continue cooking stirring occasionaly for about 40 to 60 munutes. I do not add water as the chicken releases enough of its own juices but if you find it to be to dry add water.
- Many like to add sour cream (I prefer mine without) before serving, just mix it in and let it cook long enough to warm up the sauce.
