Paprika Chicken

I was going through my files and i came across this recipe that i created about 2 years ago. It is a really simple dish and very filling, enjoy.

Paprika Chicken

Ingredients

3 to 4 lb chicken cut up
2 cups of chicken stock, low salt
2 cups of red bliss potatoes, 1 inch dice
2 cups of cauliflower florets
1/2 cup sour cream or plain yogurt
1 large onion diced
1 can of diced tomatoes, 15oz
4 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves of garlic minced
2 tablespoon of paprika
1 tablespoon flour
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

In a large deep casserole add 2 tablespoons of the oil and place on a medium high heat, working a few pieces a time brown the chicken on each side, about 5 minutes and set aside. While you are browning the chicken place the cauliflower in a zip lock bag along with the 2 tablespoons of oil and one of the cloves of garlic: shake to coat. Pour the contents onto a parchment lined baking sheet and place in the oven for about 35 minutes, you want the florets to get a nice char.

After all the chicken is done, add the onions to the casserole and cook until soft. Next add the potatoes, reduce heat and saute the potatoes until they begin to soften. Remove potatoes and add the paprika and flour, stir to combine. Next add the chicken stock, tomatoes, salt and pepper, raise heat and bring to a boil. Lower heat and return the potatoes and the chicken to the casserole, cover and simmer until potatoes and chicken are done.

Now remove chicken from casserole and place on a deep platter. Now add the sour cream or yogurt to casserole, stir to combine. Now add the cauliflower to the casserole and simmer to warm, about 2 minutes. Pour the sauce, potatoes and cauliflower over chicken and serve.
